Question

How do you solve and check your solution given `9=3/4g`?

Answer 1

`g=12`

Explanation:

Both sides must be divided by `3/4` to put `g` on its own. By dividing a fraction, you multiply by the inverse, i.e. `-:a/b -= *b/a`.

Therefore, `3/4g -: 3/4 -= 3/4g*4/3 = (3*4)/(4*3)g = 12/12g = g`

`9-:3/4 -= 9*4/3 = 36/3 = 12`

`g=12`
