Question

3 times what equals 27?

Answer 1

3 times 9 equals 27 that is your answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the number be x

From the given statement "3 times of a number equals to 27".

3 times of a number implies $3 \times x$

then,

$3\times x =27$

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number from both sides of an equation

Divide both sides by 3 , we get;

$\frac{3\times x}{3} =\frac{27}{3}$

Simplify:

x =9

therefore, 3 times 9 equals  27
