To solve the equation x/3 = -10, we need to isolate x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 3:
(x/3) * 3 = -10 * 3
This simplifies to:
x = -30
To check our solution, we substitute x = -30 back into the original equation:
(-30)/3 = -10
This simplifies to:
-10 = -10
Since the equation is true, our solution x = -30 is correct.
