Solving Division Equations
You use the multiplication property of equality to multiply both sides by 8 in order to get the “x” by itself. X = 56 To check to see if your answer is correct, substitute 56 in place of the x in your equation. Solve the equation. If it is true then the value for x is correct.
You use the multiplication property of equality to multiply both sides by 6 in order to get the “x” by itself. x = 90 To check to see if your answer is correct, substitute the x in your equation with the 90. Solve the equation. If it is true then the value for x is correct.
x = 475 x = 40 x = 864 x = 68
