Question

Solve the following equation. Then place the correct number in the box provided. Leave answer in terms of a mixed

8x/7=8

X=?

Answer 1

-The value of
`x`:

`x = 7`

Explanation:

-Solve for the value of
`x`:

`(8x)/(7) = 8`

-Multiply both sides by the denominator, which is
`7`:

`7\cdot (8x)/(7) = 8 \cdot 7`

`8x = 56`

-Divide both sides by 8:

`(8x)/(8) = (56)/(8)`

`x = 7`

So, the value of
`x`, would be
`x = 7`.

Answer 2

Explanation:

`(8x)/(7)=8`

Multiply both sides by 7

`7*(8x)/(7)=8*7\\\\8x=8*7\\`

Divide both sides by 8

`(8x)/(8)=(8*7)/(8)\\`

x = 7
