how do i work this out
80=10x
divide each side by ten.
To solve the equation 80 = 10x, you can isolate the variable x by performing the same operation on both sides of the equation. In this case, you want to divide both sides of the equation by 10, so the equation becomes:
80/10 = (10x)/10
On the left side, 80 divided by 10 is equal to 8:
8 = x
Therefore, x is equal to 8.
