Write an equation for the sentence “The product of a number n and 7.7 equals 112.42.” Solve for the variable.
The Product = Multiply
Multiply n and 7.7 equals 112.47
N * 7.7 = 112.42
Divide both sides by 7.7
N = 112.42/7.7
112.42/7.7 = 14.6
14.6 = N
So, the variable is 14.6
Answer:
\(n=14.6\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The expression "The product of a number n and \(7.7\) equals \(112.42\) " is equivalent to the algebraic equation
\(7.7n=112.42\)
Solve for n
Divide by \(7.7\) both sides
\(7.7n/7.7=112.42/7.7\)
\(n=112.42/7.7\)
\(n=14.6\)
