Write an algebraic equation for each question below and then solve the equation.
1. Six times a number is 150. What is the number?

Answer :

the equation is 6x=150
now in order to solve the equation and find x all we need to do is divide by 6 to both sides
which would leave us with x=25

let the number be x

The above statement can be expressed as :

  • [tex]6x = 150[/tex]

  • [tex]x = \dfrac{150}{6} [/tex]

  • [tex]x = 25[/tex]

the number is 25
