Example Question #2701 : Isee Middle Level (Grades 7 8) Mathematics Achievement

Solve for b in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for b, we need to get b to stand alone.

So, in the equation

we we need to move the 7 away from b.  To move the b away, we need to cancel it out.  We can see b is divided by 7.  To cancel out division, we need to multiply. 

If we multiply by 7 on the left side of the equal sign, we must multiply by 7 on the right side of the equal sign. So,

Example Question #2702 : Isee Middle Level (Grades 7 8) Mathematics Achievement

Solve for f in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for f, we want f to stand alone.

In the equation:

we want f to be alone.  Right now, f is divided by 6.  So, we need to move the 6.  To do that, we need to cancel it out.  To cancel out division, we need to multiply by 6.  

If we multiply by 6 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to multiply by 6 on the right side of the equal sign.

So, we get

Example Question #381 : Equations

Solve for s in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for s, we want s to stand alone.

So, in the equation

we want s to stand alone.  Right now, s is being multiplied by 8.  So, we need to move the 8.  To move it, we need to cancel it out.  To cancel out multiplication, we need to divide by 8.

If 

Example Question #382 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation

Solve for x in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for x, we want x to stand alone.

So, in the equation

we want to move the 6.  To move it, we need to cancel it out.  Right now, the x is being multiplied by 6.  So, to cancel it out, we need to divide by 6.  If we divide by 6 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to divide by 6 on the right side of the equal sign. So,

Example Question #382 : Equations

Solve for x in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for x, we want x to stand alone. So, in the equation

we want to move the 8.  To move it, we need to cancel it out.  Right now, x is being multiplied by 8.  So, if we want to cancel it out, we need to divide by 8.

If we divide by 8 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to divide by 8 on the right side of the equal sign. So,

Example Question #384 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation

Solve for z in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for z, we want z to stand alone. So, in the equation

we want to move the 6.  To move it, we need to cancel it out.  Right now, z is being divided by 6.  So, to cancel it out, we need to multiply by 6.  

If we multiply by 6 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to multiply by 6 on the right side of the equal sign.  So,

Example Question #2705 : Isee Middle Level (Grades 7 8) Mathematics Achievement

Solve for h in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for h, we want h to stand alone.  So, in the equation

we need to move the 7.  To move it, we need to cancel it.  We can see that h is being divided by 7.  So, to cancel it, we need to multiply by 7.

If we multiply by 7 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to multiply by 7 on the right side of the equal sign.  So, we get

Example Question #386 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation

Solve for b in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for b, we want b to stand alone.  So, in the equation

we need to move the 6.  To move it, we need to cancel it.  Right now, b is being multiplied by the 6.  So, to cancel, we need to divide.

If we divide by 6 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to divide by 6 on the right side of the equal sign.  So, we get

Example Question #387 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation

Solve for a in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for a, we want a to stand alone.  So, in the problem

we need to move the 4.  To move it, we need to cancel it.  Right now, a is being divided by 4.  So, to cancel it, we need to multiply.

If we multiply by 4 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to multiply by 4 on the right side of the equal sign.  So, we get

Example Question #2706 : Isee Middle Level (Grades 7 8) Mathematics Achievement

Solve for x in the following equation:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for x, we want x to stand alone.  In the equation

we need to move the 9.  To move it, we need to cancel it.  We can see x is being divided by 9.  To cancel division, we need to multiply.

If we multiply by 9 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to multiply by 9 on the right side of the equal sign.  So,
