Answer

$0.44$

Work Step by Step

One way to solve this problem is first isolate the $x$. We are trying to solve for $x$ so we must isolate it on one side of the equation to find what it equals. To do that, multiply both sides by $0.3$. Then, we have the problem $x$ $=$ $\frac{0.48}{1.1}$. So $x$ equals that division problem. Solve the division problem: $0.48$ $\div$ $1.1$ $=$ $0.43636...$ The problem asks you to round the solution to the nearest hundredth. Do that and you have your answer! $x$ $=$ $0.44$
