Answer

$10$

Work Step by Step

Dividing with $\displaystyle \frac{P}{Q}$ equals multiplying with the reciprocal, $\displaystyle \frac{Q}{P}.$ $\displaystyle \frac{15}{x}\div\frac{3}{2x}=\frac{15}{x}\cdot\frac{2x}{3}\qquad$... divide out the common factors $=\displaystyle \frac{5}{1}\cdot\frac{2\cdot 1}{1}$ = $10$
