Solve for k m/k=x

$\frac{m}{k} = x$

Step 1

Find the LCD of the terms in the equation.

Finding the LCD of a list of values is the same as finding the LCM of the denominators of those values.

$k, 1$

The LCM of one and any expression is the expression.

$k$

Step 2

Multiply each term in $\frac{m}{k} = x$ by $k$ to eliminate the fractions.

Multiply each term in $\frac{m}{k} = x$ by $k$ .

$\frac{m}{k} k = x k$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $k$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{m}{k} k = x k$

Rewrite the expression.

$m = x k$

Step 3

Solve the equation.

Rewrite the equation as $x k = m$ .

$x k = m$

Divide each term in $x k = m$ by $x$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $x k = m$ by $x$ .

$\frac{x k}{x} = \frac{m}{x}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $x$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{x k}{x} = \frac{m}{x}$

Divide $k$ by $1$ .

$k = \frac{m}{x}$
