Answer: D. Divide both sides by 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. The expression we have is:


64x=37

To solve the equation, we need to solve for x, which means to have x alone on one side of the equation.

Step 2. To have x alone on one side of the equation, we need to eliminate the 64 that accompanies the x.

We do that by dividing both sides by that number which is 64:


\begin{gathered} (64x)/(64)=(37)/(64) \\ \downarrow\downarrow \\ x=(37)/(64) \end{gathered}

As you can see by dividing both sides by 64, we solved for x.

Answer: D. Divide both sides by 64
