Question

Sasha solved an equation. Her work is shown below. Explain Sasha's error. Then, show the correct way to solve.
h/7 = 6
h/7 + 7 = 6 + 7
h=13

Answer 1

\[(6)/7 = 6\]
\[(13)/7 + 7 = 6 + 7\]
well to double check her answer plug in 13 instead of h

Answer 2

then see where she made the mistake

Answer 3

Thanks! @kidrah69

Answer 4

7*(h/7) = 7*6
h = 42

Answer 5

After that you need to show the correct way to solve it we use the reciprocal so what @robtobey did
