To solve the equation 1/х = 4/16, we can cross-multiply.
Cross-multiplying means multiplying the numerator of the first fraction with the denominator of the second fraction, and vice versa.
So, we have 1 * 16 = 4 * х.
This simplifies to 16 = 4х.
To isolate х, we divide both sides of the equation by 4:
16/4 = 4х/4.
This further simplifies to 4 = х.
Therefore, the solution to the equation 1/х = 4/16 is х = 4.
