Answer:
x = 72
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{x}{16}=\frac{9}{2} \\\\[/tex]
Start by multiplying 16 to both sides
[tex](\frac{16}{1}) * \frac{x}{16} = (\frac{16}{1}) * \frac{9}{2}[/tex]
16s on the left-hand cancel
[tex]x =(\frac{16}{1}) * (\frac{9}{2})[/tex]
[tex]x =( \frac{144}{2} )[/tex]
we can simplify that expression
[tex]x = 72[/tex]
