9/4 times what equals 1/1?

Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "9/4 times what equals 1/1?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".

(9/4) • (x) = (1/1)

To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by dividing 9/4 on both sides like this:

((9/4) • (x)) / (9/4) = (1/1) / (9/4)

((9/4) • (x)) / (9/4) leaves x and (1/1) / (9/4) is 4/9 which means we end up with this x = 4/9. Therefore, the answer to "9/4 times what equals 1/1?" is as follows:

4/9

It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered 4/9 for x in this equation (9/4) • (x) = (1/1), we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.

(9/4) • (4/9) = (1/1)
