Keith guessed the number 8 for the solution to the equation below. Does Keith have the correct solution?

? ÷ 2 = 4

1 answer

To determine if Keith's guess of 8 is correct for the equation \( ? \div 2 = 4 \), we can solve the equation.

To find the value of \( ? \), we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2:

\[ ? = 4 \times 2 \]

Calculating the right side gives:

\[ ? = 8 \]

Since \( ? \) equals 8, Keith's guess of 8 is indeed correct.
