Question

Solve the equation. -x/3=27

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-81

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction on the left side.

$-x/3(3)=27(3)$

$-x=81$

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x on the left side of the equation

$-x/-1=81/-1\\x=-81$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = - 81.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : $\frac{-x}{3} = 27$.

To find : solve the equation.

Solution: We have given

$\frac{-x}{3} = 27$.

On multiplying both sides by 3

-x = 27*3.

On dividing both sides by -1.

x = - 81.

Therefore, x = - 81.
