Question

Use the properties of an equality to solve the following equations.

(8) $1=\frac{x}{3}$

Answer 1

$1=\frac{x}{3}$
Using the multiplication property of equality, we get:
$$\begin{gathered} 1\times 3=\frac{x}{3}\times 3 \\ 1\times 3=x\times 1 \end{gathered}$$

We know:
1 × Any number = The same number
⇒ 3 = x
Thus, the value of x is 3.
