Question

Which property of equality should Wayne use to solve the equation x/6=3?

Answer 1

Wayne should use the Multiplication Property of Equality to solve the equation above (btw, nice name Wayne :D).

He would use this property because it would allow him to achieve x alone by eliminating the 6 from the denominator.

x/6 = 3
x/6 x 6 = 3 x 6
x = 18

Answer 2

The simple answer is multiplication.

He should multiply both sides by 6. If he does this, he will get

x/6 * 6 = 3* 6
x = 18

You can check this by looking at the original equation.

x/6 = 3
18/6 = 3
3 = 3
