Question

Use mental math to determine the solution to x/3 = 24

Answer 1

Since this is division problem, lets reverse it into a multiplication problem to figure out x.
24 x 3 = 72.
x = 72............... 72/3 = 24.

Answer 2

x = 72.

Explanation:

Given : x/3 = 24.

To find : Use mental math to determine the solution .

Solution : We have given

`(x)/(3) =24`.

On multiplying both sides by 3

x = 24 * 3

x = 72.

Therefore, x = 72.
