A number is multiplied by 8 and the result is 28.
A number= x.
8(x)= 28
Divide both sides by 8.
28/8= 3.5
x= 3.5
I hope this helps!

7 x 5 = 35
1/2(7) x 2
3.5 x 2
7
35 + 7 = 42 Units squared
Saying 3/4 * 3 is the same thing as saying 3/4 of 3. Imagine you have 3 pies, each cut into 4 slices. That would be 3 * 4 = 12 slices of pie, right?
So when there's 12 slices, that would be 4/4 of the pies, since all the pieces are there.
To find out how many pies we would have with 3/4 of the pie left, we just need to multiply the original equation.
3 * 3/4 = 2 1/4
The product of those two numbers lies between 2 and 3.
Hope that helped =)
