Multiplication property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the equation
[tex]-\frac{3}{8}x=48[/tex]
We have to find the property which was applied to solve the equation.
[tex]-\frac{3}{8}x=48[/tex]
Reason: Given
Multiply by -8/3 on both sides
[tex]-\frac{8}{3}\times -\frac{3}{8}x=-\frac{8}{3}\times 48[/tex]
By using multiplication property of equality.
[tex]x=\frac{-384}{3}[/tex]
After simplification
[tex]x=-128[/tex]
