Question

Write the step you will use to seperate the variable and then solve the equation. ✘/2 =8 ​

Answer 1

$\sf\huge\bold{Answer:}$

Given :

$\tt\ :⟶ \frac{x}{2} = 8$

To find :

Value of x

Solution :

$\tt\ :⟶ \frac{x}{2} = 8$

Step 1 : Multiplying 2 on both sides.

$\tt\ :⟶ \frac{x}{2} \times 2 = 8 \times 2$

$\tt:⟶x \times \frac{2}{2} = 16$

Step 2 : Simplifying equation by cutting terms

$\tt{:⟶x×}$$\displaystyle{\sf { \cancel{ \frac{2}{2} }}}$$\tt{=16}$

$\tt\ :⟶x \times 1 = 16$

Step 3 : Multiplying 1 by any number gives the number itself

$\tt{:⟶x = 16}$

$\tt\purple {x = 16}$
