A number is divisible by 9 if and only if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.

So, the sum of the digits of your number is

7+2+b+3+8+4 = 24+b

Since b ranges from 0 to 9 (it is a digit and it can't have any other values), 24+b ranges from 24 to 33. The only multiple of 9 in this range is 27, which we obtain by choosing b=3.

So, the only way to choose a value for b in order to make your number divisible by 9 is choosing b=3 and thus getting the number 723384, and indeed we have

\dfrac{723384}{9}=80376

What are the steps to solve for: 1/5(x+5)=1/4(x-3)+1
andrew11 [14]
Step 1. Simplify \frac{1}{5} (x+5) to \frac{x+5}{5}

\frac{x+5}{5} = \frac{1}{4} (x-3)+1

Step 2. Simplify \frac{x+5}{5} to 1+ \frac{x}{5}

1+ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{1}{4} (x-3)+1

Step 3. Simplify \frac{1}{4} (x-3) to \frac{x-3}{4}

1+ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{x-3}{4} +1

Step 4. Cancel 1 on both sides

\frac{x}{5} = \frac{x-3}{4}

Step 5. Multiply both sides by 20 (the LCM of 5,4)

4x=5(x-3)

Step 6. Expand

4x=5x-15

Step 7. Subtract 5x from both sides

4x-5x=-15

Step 8. Simplify 4x-5x to -x

-x=-15

Step 9. Multiply both sides by -1

x=15

Done! :) Hope this helps! :)

An equation is shown below:
lisov135 [29]

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ( 2x - 8 ) + 15 = -15 (write the equation)

5 ( 2x - 8 ) = -30 (subtract by 15 on both sides)

2x - 8 = -6 (divide by 5 on both sides)

2x = 2 (add 8 to both sides)

x = 1 (divide by 2 on both sides)
