wait, so it's 8/8 = 9.6/8?  can you explaing Shannoe...thanks

anonymous · Answer

8/8 is 1 leaving g on the left side of the equation.. 9.6/8 is 1.2 on the right side of the equation do that g=1.2 plug it back in to the original equation to check it...8(1.2)=9.6 so 8 x 1.2=9.6.......9.6=9.6.. so the answer checks out
