Question

In which equation would you multiply both sides by 4.5 to get the variable alone?

A. 6.1p = 4.5
B. p ÷ 6.1 = 4.5
C. p ÷ 4.5 = 6.1
D. 4.5p = 6.1

Answer 1

c.

Explanation:

p/4.5 = 6.1

to isolate the variable do the opposite action

p/4.5 = 6.1

as p is divided by 4.5, you must multiply both sides by 4.5

p/4.5 ×4.5 = 6.1 × 4.5

p = 27.45
