Question

Find x, such that: ${\displaystyle \frac{-48}{\text{x}}=6}$

Answer 1

${\displaystyle \frac{-48}{\text{x}}=6}$

${\displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{-48}{\text{x}}=\frac{6}{1}}$

${\displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{-48}{\text{x}}=\frac{6\times -8}{1\times -8}}$

${\displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{-48}{\text{x}}=\frac{-48}{-8}}$

⇒ x = - 8
