Question

Solve the equation for x. 25x = 275

x =​

Answer 1

x = 11

Explanation:

So the equation is 25x = 275. In order for us to find out what x is we need to get rid of 25 that is next to x, so we are going to have to divide 25x by 25. What you do to one side you do to the other so the equation will look like this:

25x/ 25 = 275/ 25

25x/25 = x

275/25 = 11

so x = 11
