Sagot :

[tex]\huge\textbf{Hey there!}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{\mathbf {Your\ equation} :\mathsf{\dfrac{5}{12}\times\boxed{} = 1}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\textbf{We don't know the unknown number yet so we will}\\\large\textbf{label it as \boxed{f}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{5}{12}\times f = 1}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{\rightarrow\mathsf{\dfrac{5}{12}(f)= 1}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\textbf{MULTIPLY by }\mathbf{\dfrac{12}{5}}\large\textbf{ to BOTH SIDES}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{12}{5}\times\dfrac{5}{12}f = \dfrac{12}{5}\times1}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\textbf{CANCEL out: }\mathbf{\dfrac{12}{5}\times\dfrac{5}{12}}\large\textbf{ because it gives you 1.}[/tex]

[tex]\large\textbf{KEEP: }\mathbf{\dfrac{12}{5}\times1}\large\textbf{ because it helps solve for the f-value.}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{\mathbf{NEW \ EQUATION: }\mathsf{f = 1\times \dfrac{12}{5}}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\textbf{SIMPLIFY IT!}[/tex]

[tex]\huge\boxed{\textbf{Therefore, your answer: \boxed{\mathsf{f = \dfrac{12}{5}}}}}\huge\checkmark[/tex]

[tex]\huge\textbf{Good luck on your assignment \&}\\\huge\textbf{enjoy your day!}[/tex]
