Question

Use mental math to solve for the missing number:

Answer 1

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

The quotient of x and 3 is 13.

x/3 = 13

Multiply both sides by 3.

x = 13 × 3

x = 39

Answer 2

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of a number and 3 is 13. That's the same as saying n/3 = 13.

IF you multiply both sides of the equation by 3, you get n = 39, which is what we want.
