Question

Write a multiplication equation that represents the question: how many 38s are in 54? DO NOT tell me the answer just show me how you worked it out using MULTIPLICATION. Thanks.

Answer 1

`38 x = 54`

Explanation:

Required

Determine the number of 38 in 54

We start by representing the number of 38 in 54 with x

To determine the number of 38 in 54, we have to represented it as thus:

`38 * x = 54`

Simplify the expression as follows:

`38 x = 54`

The expression can be left like that or simplified further by dividing through by 2:

`19x = 27`

Hence, the solution to the question is:

`19x = 27` or
`38 x = 54`
