Answer

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

Answer

The goal is to isolate the variable on one side.

Divide each side by :

$\frac{0.75x}{0.75}=\frac{9}{0.75 }$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

Answer

The goal is to isolate the variable on one side.

Divide each side by :

$\frac{9.25x}{9.25}=\frac{74}{9.25}$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

Answer

Subtract 1.75 from both sides of the equation:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

$\small .6x=6$

Answer

To isolate , we must divide both sides by .6:

$\small \small \frac{.6x}{.6}=\frac{6}{.6}$

$\small 1x=10$

$\small x=10$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

$\frac{x}{0.5} = 2$

Answer

The goal is to isolate the variable on one side.

$\frac{x}{0.5} = 2$

The opposite operation of division is multiplication, therefore , multiply each side by 0.5:

$\frac{0.5x}{0.5} = 0.5\times 2$

The left hand side can be reduced by recalling that anything divided by itself is equal to 1:

$1\times x = 0.5 \times 2$

The identity law of multiplication takes effect and we get the solution as:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :

$\frac{x}{0.15} = 3$

Answer

The goal is to isolate the variable on one side.

$\frac{x}{0.15} = 3$

The opposite operation of division is multiplication, therefore , multiply each side by 0.15:

$\frac{0.15x}{0.15} = 0.15\times 3$

The left hand side can be reduced by recalling that anything divided by itself is equal to 1:

$1\times x = 0.15 \times 3$

The identity law of multiplication takes effect and we get the solution as:

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Solve for :
