Question

The solution to 8x = 32 is x = __.

Answer 1

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$!

$\large\text{8x = 32}$

$\large\text{DIVIDE 8 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8x}{8} = \dfrac{32}{8}}$

$\large\text{Cancel out: } \mathsf{\dfrac{8}{8}}\large\text{ because that gives you } \mathsf{1}$

$\large\text{Keep: }\mathsf{\dfrac{32}{8}}\large\text{ because it helps us solve for }\mathsf{x}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{32}{2}\ = x \ or\ x = \dfrac{32}{8}}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{32}{8} = 32\div 8 \rightarrow \bf 4}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \bf x = 4}}}\huge\checkmark$
