The equation to find the weight of each rabbit (w) is 6w = 8.4. This equation states that the weight of each rabbit times six (the number of rabbits) equals the total weight of all 6 rabbits (8.4 kg).

In this problem, we need to find the weight w of each rabbit using the equation 6w = 8.4. This equation is derived based on the given information: the magician has 6 rabbits and the combined weight of all rabbits is 8.4 kilograms. Hence, the weight of each rabbit (w) would be the combined weight divided by the number of rabbits.

Solving this equation will give you the weight of each rabbit.

The probable question maybe:
