Which equation represents "3 times as many as a number, n, is 27"?(1 point) Responses 3 = 27 x 3 = 27 x 3 x = 27 3 x = 27 27 ÷ n = 3 27 ÷ n = 3 27 = 3 ÷ n

Answer 1

The phrase "3 times as many as a number, n, is 27" can be translated into the equation:

\[ 3n = 27 \]

However, among the options provided, although none directly present the equation in a clear format, the correct interpretation should yield an equation that equals 27 when 3 times a number is the subject.

If we are to see if any of the provided responses resemble this interpretation:

• The closest option that corresponds to the correct equation is not explicitly listed, but one potential way to see a misphrased version could be that the question asks for some manipulation or consideration of n in terms of 27, hence the option that indirectly presents it like:

\[ 3n = 27 \]

So, since that direct option isn't among your choices, the best interpretation that matches our conversion would be "3 x = 27" (if we consider "x" as the variable instead of "n"). But this seems to be a misalignment with the options provided.

However, the clear equation we note for "3 times as many as a number, n, is 27" is:

3n = 27.
