Question

Which inverse operation would be used to verify the following equation?

102 ÷ 3 = 34

A. 34 × 3 = 102
B. 3 + 34 = 37
C. 34 − 3 = 31
D. 102 ÷ 34 = 3

Answer 1

The correct answer is A.

Answer 2

Option A is correct.

Inverse operation of division is multiplication.

`34 * 3 = 102`

Explanation:

Verify the equation:
`102 / 3 = 34`

Inverse operation of
`/` is
`*`

then;

`102 * (1)/(3) = 34`

By cross multiply we get;

`102 = 34 * 3`

therefore, the inverse operation would be used to verify the following equation is;
`34 * 3 = 102`
