Question
$$\frac{30}{15}\cdot3 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{30}{15}\cdot3 &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 15 }. \\[1 em]15 \cdot \frac{30}{15}\cdot3 &= 15\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]90 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 90 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
