Question

5x=37
Find the value of x.

Answer 1

Do you know how to isolate \(x\)?

Answer 2

No. Can you help me?

Answer 3

You simply divide 5 by37

Answer 4

To isolate \(x\) take: \(5x=37 \) and divide both sides by \(5\).
So:
\[\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{37}{5}\]

The 5 on the left cancel each other out.

Answer 5

So 5x/5 would put x by itself?

Answer 6

In essence yes.

Answer 7

Remember what you do to one side you must do to the other.

Answer 8

So, x=7.4?

Answer 9

Yes! :-)
