What value for n makes the equation true? 8n - 2 = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation

We want to solve for n, therefore we must isolate n on one side of the equation.

2 is being subtracted from 8n. The inverse of subtraction is addition. Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

n is being multiplied by 8. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 8.

The value of n that makes the equation true is 1/2.

a. 3/4 ÷ 1/8 = 6

step-by-step explanation:

in the question, the number line represents 3/4 divided into 6 equal units. each arrow represents a unit and there are a total of six arrows.

the size of each unit is 1/8 as shown.

showing that 1/8 divides 3/4 into 6 divisions:

3/4 ÷ 1/8

= 3/4 x 8/1

= 3/1 x 8/4

= 3 x 2

= 6

hence, the number line represents six divisions given by 3/4 ÷ 1/8.
