Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

4/9 = x/36

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Cross multiply:                    144 = 9x
  2. Isolate x:                              16 = x
  3. Rewrite:                               x = 16

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

  1. Substitute in x:                    4/9 = 16/36
  2. Simplify:                               4/9 = 4/9

Here we see that 4/9 does indeed equal 4/9.

∴ x = 16 is the solution to the equation.
