35.4=3.1z
35 point 4 is equal to 3 point 1 z

201.6=11.2f
201 point 6 is equal to 11 point 2 f

t3.2=15.1
t over 3 point 2 is equal to 15 point 1

201.6=11.2+c

Answer 1

To determine which equation requires the multiplication property of equality to be solved, let's look at each option:

1. **35.4 = 3.1z**
- To solve for \(z\), you would divide both sides by \(3.1\). This does not require multiplication.

2. **201.6 = 11.2f**
- To solve for \(f\), you would divide both sides by \(11.2\). This does not require multiplication.

3. **t/3.2 = 15.1**
- To solve for \(t\), you would multiply both sides by \(3.2\). This requires the multiplication property of equality.

4. **201.6 = 11.2 + c**
- To solve for \(c\), you would subtract \(11.2\) from both sides. This does not require multiplication.

The equation that requires the multiplication property of equality to be solved is:

**t/3.2 = 15.1**
