Find the value of xx in the equation below.

Question

8, point, 5, equals, start fraction, x, divided by, 4, end fraction
8.5=
4
x
​

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 8.5 = \frac{x}{4} \), you can start by isolating \( x \). To do this, multiply both sides of the equation by 4:

\[ 8.5 \times 4 = x \]

Now, calculate \( 8.5 \times 4 \):

\[ 8.5 \times 4 = 34 \]

Thus, \( x = 34 \).

The value of \( x \) is \( 34 \).
