OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think you're equation is messed up a little...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, It isn't :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so what is 6 x 4? @zech123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so the left side of the equal sign is 24.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you multiply 6 x 7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

42

OpenStudy (rainbow_dashie):

I was answering this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good. So we need to subtract 42 by a number to get 24.
