1 answer

Here are the correct responses for each question:

Question 1: To solve the equation \(6x = 36\):

  • The correct operation is to divide both sides by 6.
  • This gives \(x = 36 / 6 = 6\).

Correct statement: Divide both sides by 6; x = 6.

Question 2: To solve the equation \(x/7 = 14\):

  • The correct operation is to multiply both sides by 7.
  • This gives \(x = 14 \cdot 7 = 98\).

Correct statement: Multiply both sides by 7; x = 98.

Question 3: To solve the equation \(2x = 16\):

  • The correct operation is to divide both sides by 2.
  • This gives \(x = 16 / 2 = 8\).

Correct statement: Divide both sides by 2; x = 8.
