Zola is thinking of a number. If the number is divided by 7.5, the quotient is 62. what is zolas number?

Sagot :

x/7.5=62
x=62x7.5
x=465
Okay, so I would multiply 62*7.5 to get 465.

To check the solution, make sure it follows the rules as in the word problem.

If you divide 465 by 7.5 you do get 62, so the solution is 465.

Mathematically, the equation would be

x
-     = 62
7.5
I would multiply x/7.5 by 7.5/1 (to cancel it out) and 62/1  by 7.5 which is basically the same solution as above.
