The solution
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$\frac{5}{8 x} = - \frac{37}{48}$$
Use proportions rule:
From a1/b1 = a2/b2 should a1*b2 = a2*b1,
In this case
a1 = 1
b1 = 48/37
a2 = 1
b2 = -8*x/5
so we get the equation
$$- \frac{8 x}{5} = \frac{48}{37}$$
$$- \frac{8 x}{5} = \frac{48}{37}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -8/5
x = 48/37 / (-8/5)
We get the answer: x = -30/37
$$x_{1} = - \frac{30}{37}$$
