6. 6/5 divided by _ = 6
A. 1/5
B. 30
C. 1/30
D.5
7. 5/7x = 140
A. 28
B. 196
C. 20
D. 100
(6/5) / x = 6
6/5 = 6x
1/5 = x
5/7 x = 140
x = 140 * 7/5
x = 196
oh! so it's 196??
For 7 you must divide by the reciprocal of 5/7 which is 7/5.
It would be x=7/5 • 140. Multiply across and divide.
For 6 the equation would look like 6/5(x)=6
Plugin your answers you have and see which one would give you 6
It would be 196 since you multiply 140 by 7 and then divide by 5.
To solve these problems, we need to apply the concept of division and solve for the missing variable.
For question 6, we have the equation 6/5 divided by _ equals 6. We can write this equation as (6/5) / _ = 6.
To isolate the variable, we can cross-multiply: (6/5) * _ = 1/6
We can then solve for _ by multiplying both sides of the equation by 5/6:
_ = (1/6) * (5/6)
Simplifying the expression, we get _ = 5/36.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 1/5, because 5/36 divided by 1/5 equals 6.
For question 7, we have the equation 5/7x equals 140.
To isolate x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 7/5:
(5/7x) * (7/5) = 140 * (7/5)
Simplifying the expression, we get:
x = 196.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 196, because 5/7 multiplied by 196 equals 140.
