Write an equation that involves multiplication, contains a variable, and has a solution of 5. Then write another equation that has the same solution and
includes the same variable and numbers but use divison.
Sure! Let's start with the equation that involves multiplication:
Let's say our variable is "x."
One equation that satisfies the given conditions could be:
2x = 10
Here, we multiply the variable "x" by 2 to get a solution of 10. Simplifying the equation, we find that x = 5. Therefore, this equation has a solution of 5.
Now, let's move on to the equation that involves division, using the same variable and numbers:
To achieve the same solution of 5, we can use:
10 ÷ x = 2
In this equation, we divide 10 by the variable "x" to get a solution of 2. Simplifying the equation, we find that x = 5, which is the same as the previous equation.
So, these are the two equations that satisfy the given conditions:
- 2x = 10 (multiplication)
- 10 ÷ x = 2 (division)
