Answer:
k = 12
Explanation:
Given 3k = 36 we want to isolate the variable (k) using inverse operations
So we want to get rid of the 3
3k = 3 times k (multiplication)
The inverse of multiplication is division so to get rid of the * 3 we want to divide by 3. Remember whatever we do to one side we have to do to the other side so we are going to divide each side by 3
3k/3=k
36/3=12
we're left with k = 12
