Rico solved this equation in one step.
9m=126
Which choice solves the equation correctly using only one step?
126/9 = ?
14
divide the left side by 9, and multiply
the right side by 9.
That's more than one step.
To solve the equation 9m = 126 in one step, you need to perform one operation that isolates the variable 'm' on one side of the equation.
One option to do this in a single step is to divide both sides of the equation by 9.
Dividing both sides by 9:
(9m)/9 = 126/9
This simplifies to:
m = 14
Therefore, the correct choice to solve the equation using only one step is m = 14.
