What times 5/4 equals 3/2?
Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "What times 5/4 equals 3/2?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".
(x) • (5/4) = (3/2)
To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by dividing 5/4 on both sides like this:
((x) • (5/4)) / (5/4) = (3/2) / (5/4)
((x) • (5/4)) / (5/4) leaves x and (3/2) / (5/4) is 1 1/5 which means we end up with this x = 1 1/5. Therefore, the answer to "What times 5/4 equals 3/2?" is as follows:
1 1/5
It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered 3/4 for x in this equation (x) • (5/4) = (3/2), we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.
(1 1/5) • (5/4) = (3/2)
