We want to solve for x
(1/6)/x = 1/2
We multiply both sides by x to get the x in the numerator
1/6 = x*(1/2)
We can divide both sides by 1/2 to get the x alone on the right side
(1/6)/(1/2) = x
When simplified...
x = 1/3
[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{x}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{2}.x[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{1}{2}}=x[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{6}.\frac{2}{1}=x[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{6}=x[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{3}=x[/tex]
