how would you solve this 3/5 of__=24? Because i don't know what it means by that?
3/5 of x = 24 solve for x
24 : 3/5 = 24/1 : 3/5 = 24/1 * 5/3 = 40.
so x = 40 - 3/5 of 40 = 24.

Hello Guest!
That means
\(\frac{3}{5}\cdot x =24\ |\ \cdot \frac{5}{3}\\ x=24\cdot \frac{5}{3}\\ \color{blue}x=40\)
\(3/5\ of\ \underline{40}=24\)
