3 / 0.8 = z / 5.6

To find z, we need to isolate z. How can we do this? Right now, we know z / 5.6 is equal to 3 / 0.8.

To isolate z, we should multiply by 5.6 on each side.

This will cancel the divide by 5.6 or the 1/5.6 on the right side to isolate z!

(3 × 5.6) / 0.8 = z

16.8 / 0.8 = z

All we have to is simplify!

z = 21
