Question

Solve for n: 3/5n =36 Question 2 options: 60 12 180 108

Answer 1

n = 60

Explanation:

Given

`(3)/(5)` n = 36

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

3n = 180 ( divide both sides by 3 )

n = 60

Answer 2

n = 60

Explanation:

Solve for n:

(3 n)/5 = 36

Multiply both sides of (3 n)/5 = 36 by 5/3:

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = 5/3×36

5/3×3/5 = (5×3)/(3×5):

(5×3)/(3×5) n = 5/3×36

5/3×36 = (5×36)/3:

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = (5×36)/3

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = (3×5)/(3×5)×n = n:

n = (5×36)/3
