Question

What is the solution to the equation = 25? x = 5 x = 10 x = 25 x = 125

Answer 1

Answer:

x=125

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve we must find a number that when divided by 5 equals 25.

To do this we can either...

Take each answer choice and plug in the value into the x spot and see if it works...

5/5=25  WRONG

10/5=25 WRONG

25/5=25 WRONG

125/5=25 CORRECT!

ORRR... we can set the equation so that the x is alone on one side.

To do this we can multiply both sides by 5

$\frac{x}{5}$=25 ---> x=25×5

x=125
