Which of the following values is the solution of x/32 = 8? 4 24 40 256

256

Step-by-step explanation:

256/32 = 8

256

Step-by-step explanation:

x/32 = 8

On the left side, x is being divided by 8. You want x alone. The opposite operation to division is multiplication. If you multiply the left side by 32, you will undo the division. In an equation, you must do the same operation to both sides.

Multiply both sides by 32.

x/32 * 32 = 8 * 32

On the left side, multiplying by 32 cancels out dividing by 32, so you have x alone. On the right side, multiply 8 by 32. 8 * 32 = 256.

x = 256
