c/7
+9=18
c/7
=9
Add 9 to both sides
Subtract 9 from both sides
Multiply both sides by 9
Divide both sides by 9
Apply the distributive property
c=
Multiply both sides by 7

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( \frac{c}{7} + 9 = 18 \), you can follow these steps:

1. Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{c}{7} + 9 - 9 = 18 - 9 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{c}{7} = 9 \]

2. Multiply both sides by 7 to isolate \( c \): \[ 7 \cdot \frac{c}{7} = 9 \cdot 7 \] This gives: \[ c = 63 \]

So the completed statement would be:

Missing term: \( c = 63 \)
