To rewrite the equation \(5y = 20x + 8\) in terms of \(x\), Tilda first subtracts 8 from both sides:
\[
5y - 8 = 20x
\]
Next, to isolate \(x\), she needs to divide both sides by 20. Therefore, the number she should divide both sides of the equation by is **20**.
\[
5y - 8 = 20x
\]
Next, to isolate \(x\), she needs to divide both sides by 20. Therefore, the number she should divide both sides of the equation by is **20**.
