Question

60 is 5 times as great as k. equation

Answer 1

To translate this into an equation, it would be:

`60 = 5k`

Because in algebra when two numbers are next to each other it is assumed that they are multiplied.

Solving the equation we get:

`60 = 5k\\`

Divide both sides by 5

`(60)/(5) = k`

`k = 12`
