If 3c = 12 what is the value of 5c

Answer 1

To find the value of \(5c\), we first need to solve for \(c\) using the equation \(3c = 12\).

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 3: \[ c = \frac{12}{3} = 4 \]

2. Now, to find \(5c\), we multiply \(c\) by 5: \[ 5c = 5 \times 4 = 20 \]

Thus, the value of \(5c\) is \(20\).
