x=960/47

Explanation:

We can use cross multiplication to now obtain the equation

9.4x=6(32), which simplifies to

9.4x=192

To get rid of the decimal, let's multiply both sides by 10 to now have

94x=1920

Dividing both sides by 94, we get

x=1920/94, or in simplest form,

x=960/47

Hope this helps!
