Solve the equation.

3/8s = 9

Divide 3/8 to both sides:

s = 9 / 3/8

Or multiply by its reciprocal, 8/3.

s = 9 * 8/3

s = 72/3

s = 24

We have the equation 3/8s = 9, and we need to divide 9 by 3/8, and the way to do that is to multiply by the reciprocal, which is 8/3. That gives you 72/3, and when you divide that, you get 24, so that is your answer.
