75/8=x/1

Answer 1

To find the equation that represents how to compute Raquel's wage for each yard, we can start from the information given: she gets paid $75 to mow 8 yards.

To find her wage per yard, we can divide her total wage by the number of yards:

\[
\text{Wage per yard} = \frac{75}{8}
\]

Let \( x \) be the wage per yard. The equation that represents this relationship is:

\[
\frac{75}{8} = \frac{x}{1}
\]

Therefore, the correct choice is:

**75/8 = x/1**.
