Answer:

x = 8

Explanation:

This is simple. This equation is saying 4 x ___ = 32

So you have to flip the question around. Flip it to make it say: 32 ÷ 4 = ___

Now you take a calculator and divide 32 by 4. 32 ÷ 4 = 8

Therefore, your answer is 8.

If you are unsure about the answer you get, just plug it into your original equation. 4 x 8 = 32. If the equation makes sense, that means you have the right answer. If the equation doesn't make sense, then you did something wrong and you have to go back and try again.
