How To Solve A Proportion?
To solve a proportion, you cross multiply. For example, if this was the proportion: 2/4 = 3/x, you would multiply 2 with x and 4 with 3. The products will be used in your next equation. In this case, your next equation is 2x = 12. Now you want to isolate x, so divide by two for both sides. Your answer will be x = 6.

What are the numbers called in an equation?
The number and variables when next to each other in an equation are called a term. The variable or letters are coefficients.4x + 3x = 28.4x and 3x are terms and the variable "x" is the coefficient.
What is .323232 as a fraction?
You solve this as follows. You call your number "x", and write:x = .323232... (equation 1) Then you multiply this equation by 100 (a one, followed by two zeros - this is because the length of the period is 2), and get: 100x = 32.323232... (equation 2) Now you can subtract equation 1 from equation 2, and solve for "x". This will give you "x" as a fraction.
