Question

24x = 3

Answer 1

Divide both sides of the equation by 24.

Answer 2

ie x=3/24 =0.125

Answer 3

so x=8?

Answer 4

@ Waylander

Correct but it is usually better to leave the answer as a fraction.

Answer 5

@hannah

As Waylander said, x=3/24 (which you can reduce to 1/8).

Answer 6

@hannah

If 3x = 24 and you divide both sides by 3, you get x = 8.

The idea is to get x standing alone (isolate x).

Answer 7

Try it with 30x = 45....

Answer 8

x=1/8
