| ① | Multiply $ \dfrac{3}{4} $ by $ x $ to get $ \dfrac{ 3x }{ 4 } $. Step 1: Write $ x $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{3}{4} \cdot x & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{x}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 3 \cdot x }{ 4 \cdot 1 } \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 3x }{ 4 } \end{aligned} $$ |
