One-sixth of a number is 9



this question is all about equations

Answer 1

1/6n = 9 ---> the equation

x = 54 ----> equation's answer

Explanation:

The variable used can be either x or n, doesn't really matter.

It says 1/6th of a number is 9 --> write 1/6, n for the number, and then = 9

so, 1/6n = 9

Now, you are going to multiply each side by 6

1/6x * 6 = 9 * 6 --------> 54

x = 54

Answer 2

1/6x = 9

x = 54

Explanation:

Let x = number

1/6x = 9

Multiply each side by 6

1/6x * 6 = 9*6

x = 54
