Question

35\40 = 7\? a. 5 b. 8 c. 1 d. 4

Answer 1

Answer:

b. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the left side by dividing the top and bottom by 5

35/5 = 7

40 /5 = 8

7/8

Answer 2

Hey there!

35/40 = 7/x

Cross Multiply the fraction

35(x) = (7)(40)

→ 35x = 280

DIVIDE 35 to BOTH SIDES

35x/35 = 280/35

CANCEL out: 35/35 because that gives you 1

KEEP: 280/35 because that helps solve for the x-value

→ x = 280/35

x = 8

Therefore, your answer is most likely: 8 (Option B)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
