Question

What is the solution to the equation? 14g = 154 A. 5 B. 11 C. 140 D. 2,156

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 11

Step-by-step explanation:

14g = 154

[given]

14g ÷ 14 = 154 ÷ 14

[division property of equality, divide both sides by 14 to cancel out the coefficient of 14 in 14g to get g]

g = 154 ÷ 14

[division property, how many times does 14 fit in 154?]

g = 11

________

11 is the solution because when 11 is substituted or plugged in for the variable g, it is multiplied by 14 to make 154.

g = 11 → 14g = 154

14(11) = 154

154 = 154 ✓

Answer 2

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

14/14=154/14

g=11
