Complete the sentence. 800 is 10 times as much as

800 is 10 times as much as 80 because 80 times 10 is 800

The equation would be 10 x __=800. For the __ we would use N.

So, it would be 10xN which is similar to 10N=800.

You want to get N by itself so, you have to divide 10 from both side.

The 10 on the side with the variable (N) would 'cancel out' (basically it just means that it becomes 1). On the other side, it would be 800/10=80

And so, it would look like N=80 and that would be your answer.
