To solve the equation \( x54 = 243 \):
-
First, we can rewrite the equation: \[ x \cdot 54 = 243 \]
-
Next, we divide both sides by 54: \[ x = \frac{243}{54} \]
-
Now we calculate \( \frac{243}{54} \): \[ 243 \div 54 = 4.5 \]
Thus, the solution is:
- No solution
- 27
- 81
- 3
None of the provided options (27, 81, or 3) is correct based on our calculation. The correct answer is \( x = 4.5 \), which is not listed in the responses. Therefore, the response that would be accurate in reflection of the given choices is "no solution."
