5/7 x= 140 do I have to multiply or divide? @KamiBug @bohotness @AnswerMyQuestions @bruhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You do the inverse, or the opposite, so It's multiplying 5/7 to x, correct? @kalem03

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what is the inverse of multiplication? (Inverse means opposite) @kalem03

OpenStudy (anonymous):

honestly I have no idea :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hint: The inverse of addition is subtraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok so it would be division of course sorry im not thinking right today.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so then for this problem I have to divide. so the answer would be 1/96 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You divide 140 \(\div\) \(\dfrac{5}{7}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
