Answer: The correct answer is: " x = 42 . "

_____________________

Explanation:

------------------------------------------

Given:

x/7 = 6 ; Solve for "x" ;

_____________________

"x" divided by "7" equals "6" ;

to solve for "x"

______________________

Multiply Each Side of the equation by "7" :

______________________

→ " 7 *
((x)/(7)) = 6 * (7) ;

______________________

On the "left-hand side" of the equation; the "7's" cancel out;

→ {since: " 7 / 7 = 1 " } ;

___________________

and on the "right-hand side" of the equestion:

→ 6 * 7 = 42 ;

___________________

So; we have: " x = 42 " ; which is our answer.

___________________

Hope this is helpful!

Best of luck to you!

Answer:

x = 42

Explanation:

You know from your multiplication tables that ...

42/7 = 6

x = 42

__

If you like, you can solve this by multiplying both sides of the equation by 7.

(x/7)(7) = 6(7)

x = 42
