Answer 1

To solve for \( x \) in the equation \( \frac{x}{12} = 6 \), you should multiply both sides of the equation by 12.

Here’s how it looks:

\[ \frac{x}{12} = 6 \]

Multiply both sides by 12:

\[ x = 6 \times 12 \]

So, the solution is:

\[ x = 72 \]

Therefore, the correct action to take is multiplying both sides of the equation by 12.
