Rex has half as many chew toys as his furry friend, Snoopy. Snoopy has 12 chew toys. Fill in the blank with the correct operation for the one variable, one-step equation to find the number of chew toys Rex has.(1 point)
2 (boxed) r=12
To find the number of chew toys Rex has, we need to solve the equation. The equation given is 2r = 12.
We can isolate the variable r by dividing both sides of the equation by 2, because we want to undo the multiplication of 2.
2r ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2
This simplifies to r = 6.
Therefore, the correct operation for the one variable, one-step equation to find the number of chew toys Rex has is 2r = 12.
wrong you have to put the answer in the box
My apologies for not including the answer in the box.
2r = 12
To find the number of chew toys Rex has, we need to isolate the variable r. Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get:
r = 6
Therefore, the correct equation with the answer in the box is:
2 (boxed) r = 12
