Question

Use the method of your choice to find the solution of 12 = 3v.

Answer 1

v=4

Explanation:

The given equation is

`12=3v`

We need to find the solution for given equation.

According to the division property of equality: If a, b and c are real numbers where c≠0, then

`a=b\Leftrightarrow (a)/(c)=(b)/(c)`

Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 3 in the given equation.

`(12)/(3)=(3v)/(3)`

`4=v`

Interchange the sides.

`v=4`

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is v=4.
