Solve for the indicated letter

c=9d, for d

I am not sure I understand this question can someone help

You need to solve for d.

C = 9d
C/9 = d

but you don't have C so how do you solve for D?

You don't have enough information to get a numerical value for C or d.

I know that is why the question confuses me so the answer is c/9=d?

Yes. c/9 = d

I believe this exercise is to help you see how to solve this type of equation, even without actual numbers.

Of course! I can help you with that.

The given equation is c = 9d and we need to solve for the variable d.

To isolate the variable d, we need to get it on one side of the equation. We can achieve this by performing the inverse operation.

In this case, the variable d is multiplied by 9. To undo this multiplication, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 9.

When we divide both sides of the equation by 9, we get:

c / 9 = (9d) / 9

Simplifying the right side, we have:

c / 9 = d

Therefore, the equation is solved for d as d = c / 9.

So, to find the value of d, simply divide the value of c by 9.
