Answer 2

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

6x=72

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6=72/6

x=12

It can also be solved this way

6x=72

Multiply both sides by 1/6

6x(1/6)=72(1/6)

6x/6=72/6

x=72/6

x=12

To check if correct, x will be substituted for 12 in the equation, and both sides of the equation must be equal

6x=72

6(12)=72

6X12=72

72=72
