Question

What statement makes the open sentence 2.4 = 6x true?

x = 4.0

x = 2.5

x = 0.4

x = 0.2

Answer 1

multiply each option by 6 and see if it equals 2.4

Answer 2

2.4=6x Since you're solving for x, the first thing you want to do is get x by itself. To do that you divide 6x by 6 and what you do one side of an equation you have to do to the other. SO now you should have 2.4/6=x Once you divide 2.4 by 6, you get your answer which is .4 Hope this helps!
