Answer:

x=126

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' represent the unknown number

(2/7)x + 9 = 45

Subtract 9 from both sides

2/7x=36

Because the fraction is being multiplied by 'x' we can multiply both sides by its reciprocal (because a fraction multiplied by its reciprocal is 1 which would 'eliminate' it from the left side therefore isolating 'x').

x=126
