A magician has 6 rabbits. Each rabbit weighs the same. The combined weight of all the rabbits is 7.2 kilograms.

Question

(a)Let w be the weight of each rabbit (in kilograms). Write an equation that can be used to find w. First choose an appropriate form. Then fill in the blanks with the letter w and the numbers 6 and 7.2.

(b)Solve your equation for w to find the weight of each rabbit.

Answer 1

(a) The appropriate form of the equation can be written as:

6w = 7.2

(b) To solve this equation for w, we need to isolate w on one side of the equation. To do this, we divide both sides by 6:

w = 7.2/6

Thus, the weight of each rabbit is w = 1.2 kilograms.

Answer 2

question b put in equation pls

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. To provide the equation in part (b), we can modify the given equation in part (a):

w = 7.2/6

Therefore, the equation to solve for the weight of each rabbit is w = 1.2.
