------- = --------
4a 3
cross multiply
2(4a) = 1 * 3
8a = 3
a = 3/8 or a = 3 over 8
answer

Answer:
The correct answer is
2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 * a = 2/3
- 1/4 * 1/4 (It cancels out so its 1. So a = 1)
- 2/3 * 4/1 = 8/3
- a = 8/3 (Divide)
- a = 2 2/3 (Answer)
The person above is correct BUT the equation not finished and the answer only works if you divide the last answer (8/3)
Just did the test!
