We are given the equation:
0.6 x + 4.8 = 7.2
In this case, the multiplication property of equality states
that whatever is multiplied on one side should also be multiplied on the other
side. Now we need to find the number that will make everything a whole number,
in this case 5. Multiply everything by 5:
5 * (0.6 x + 4.8 = 7.2)
3 x + 24 = 36
However we can see that we can still further simplify the
equation by multiplying everything by 1/3:
(1/3) * (3 x + 24 = 36)
x + 8 = 12
or
x = 4
It should be -3 I hope this helps
True, Fe (iron) has 2 on the left side and on the other side as well. C (carbon) has 3 on the left and 3 on the other. O (oxygen) has 6, 3 for the first part and another 3 because of the reciprocal in the beginning of the equation. On the other side O has 2 and it's multiplied by the reciprocal 3 which is 6
