Subtract 0.8 from both sides, then divide each side by 6.
Divide each side by 34.
Divide each side by 6.8.

Answer 1

To solve for x
Divide each side by 6.8.

Answer 2

5

Answer 3

you would divde both sides by 6.8 to find the value of x, just like cyter said
\

Answer 4

\[1 \times x = 34/6.8\]it is
\[6.8 \times x = 34\]
if we divide by 6.8 on both sides...
\[[6.8 \times x]/6.8 = 34/6.8\]
which is
\[[6.8/6.8] \times x = 34/6.8\]
which is
\[1 \times x = 34/6.8\]
hence
x = 34/6.8
so x = 5
