72x = 90

Solve 72x = 90

Here we will show you how to solve 72x = 90. In other words, we will solve for x in order to find the value of x in this equation:

72x = 90

The goal is to get x by itself on the left side. First, we divide both sides by 72 like this:

		72x
		72

		90
		72

When a numerator and denominator value are the same, then you can eliminate them by crossing them out:

		72x
		72

		90
		72

Then you are left with x by itself on the left like this:

x =

		90
		72

Finally, 90 over 72 is the same as 90 divided by 72. So, we enter that into our calculator to get the final answer:

x = 1.25
