solve the multiplication/division puzzle. fill in the blanks.
x,/ 40 600
8 ______ ______
7 _______ _______
I'm not sure what you want. Do not understand the meaning of "x,/ 40 600".
8 * 6 = 48?
7 * 5 = 35?
To solve the multiplication/division puzzle, we need to find the missing numbers that make the equations true. Let's go step by step.
First, let's focus on the multiplication equation on the left side:
8 × ____ = 40
To find the missing number, we can divide 40 by 8. This is because division is the inverse operation of multiplication. Divide 40 by 8 to get the missing number:
40 ÷ 8 = 5
So, the missing number is 5. The equation becomes:
8 × 5 = 40
Now, let's move on to the division equation on the right side:
____ ÷ 7 = 600
To find the missing number, we can multiply 600 by 7. This is because multiplication is the inverse operation of division. Multiply 600 by 7 to get the missing number:
600 × 7 = 4200
So, the missing number is 4200. The equation becomes:
4200 ÷ 7 = 600
Now we can fill in the blanks with the missing numbers:
x,/ 40 600
8 5 4200
The completed multiplication/division puzzle looks like this:
x / 40 600
8 5 4200
