$\frac{\sqrt{x}}{16}=\frac{15}{8};\ x=?$


Given: Expression: $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{16}=\frac{15}{8};\ x=?$

To do: To find the value of $x$.

Solution:

Given expression: $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{16}=\frac{15}{8}$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{x}=\frac{15}{8}\times16$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{x}=15\times2$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{x}=30$

$\Rightarrow (\sqrt{x})^2=30^2$               [On squaring both sides]

$\Rightarrow x=900$

Thus, $x=900$.
