Solve 4500*X=3375

x=3375/4500

There are 2 ways of solving this

First is to look at the options and try to get the nearest match for example if we have 5 in denominator then check if 3375 also divides by 900 since 4500 * 5 = 900

How ever many times we are struck with options like 3/4 where numerator is one less than denominator or vice versa in such cases subtract the 2 numbers 4500-3375 in this case and divide the result i.e 1125 by any of the numbers if it divides one of the number it will definitely divide other number and result will be next or previous number.

Here we find that 1125 divides 4500 and result is 4 so it will also divide 3375 and result will be 3

 Hence our answer is 3/4
