sgtpepper said:...you just have to (as Loren said) work the equation to get (x/y) by itself on one side. Having said that:
(2x)/(5/y) = 3/4 >>>>>>>>>>>>> (2x)/(5/y) = (2/5)*(x/y) Small typo - should read
(2x)/(5y) = 3/4 >>>>>>>>>>>>> (2x)/(5y) = (2/5)*(x/y) some extra '\' operators hanging out
(2/5)(x/y) = 3/4
Multiply the left side by....
