Question

\(\dfrac{-5}{8}\cdot\dfrac{x}{16}=\dfrac{-1}{2}\)

Answer 1

\(\Leftrightarrow\dfrac{x}{16}=-\dfrac{1}{2}:\dfrac{-5}{8}\)

\(\Leftrightarrow\dfrac{x}{16}=\dfrac{4}{5}\)

\(\Leftrightarrow5x=64\)

\(\Leftrightarrow x=12,8\)

Answer 2

\(-\dfrac{5}{8}.\dfrac{x}{16}=-\dfrac{1}{2}\\ -\dfrac{10}{16}.\dfrac{x}{16}=-\dfrac{8}{16}\\ -10x=-8\\ x=\dfrac{4}{5}=0,8\)
