Answer:
[tex]\boxed{ \sf \; x = 192}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation:
[tex] \tt \: 16 = \cfrac{x}{12} [/tex]
We need to find the value of x.
Solution:
[tex]\tt \implies16 = \cfrac{x}{12} [/tex]
Multiply both sides by 12:
[tex]\tt \implies16 \times \sf12 = \tt \cfrac{x}{12} \sf \times 12[/tex]
Multiply the LHS:
[tex]\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{12} \times \sf12[/tex]
Now, Cancel the RHS:
- Cancel 12(which is on the denominator) and cancel 12(which is multiplied by x/12):
[tex]\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{ \cancel{12}} \times \cancel{12}[/tex]
[tex]\tt \implies192 = \cfrac{x}{1} \times 1[/tex]
[tex]\tt \implies192 = x[/tex]
Flip the equation:
[tex] \implies \tt \: x = 192[/tex]
We're done!
Hence, the value of x would be 192.
