Answer:

[tex]\frac{88}{3}[/tex]  or 29.33

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}=\frac{11}{x}[/tex]

If you think of this as a cross, you have (3 and x) and (11 and 8)

Take the 2 numbers that form a cross and don't have the variable and multiply them. After that, divide by the number with the variable.

[tex]x=\frac{11*8}{3} \\x=\frac{88}{3}\\[/tex]

Answer:88/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8=11/x

Cross multiply

3 x x=11 x 8

3x=88

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=88/3

x=88/3
