Question

The general strategy for solving an equation of the form x/a= bis toA. divide both sides by bB. multiply both sides by bC. multiply both sides by aD. divide both sides by aE. divide both sides by x

Answer 1

The general strategy for solving an equation of the form

$\frac{x}{a}=b$

is to multiply both sides by a, provided a and b are numerical constants, and x is unknown. This gives

$x=ab$

Hence, the correct option is C
