You have 5 apples, multiply it by x, and get 1345. What is x?

x = 269

explanation:

solve:

5 * x = 1345

x = 1345/5

x = 269

Therefore x is 269.

note: changing sides changes multiplication(*) to division(/) and division(/) to multiplication(*).

x = 269

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, they are asking you to create a problem out of the information given. For this problem, we will require the use of division. Before we can solve, we need to create the problem first.

Because the problem says 5 multiplied by x, we have to multiply these two. (Important:) Anytime you are multiplying a coefficient (5 in this case) by a variable (x in this case) we have to put the coefficient in front of the variable, like this:

5x _ ___.

Now that we know that, the question states that this basically equals 1345. With that said, that just gave us the rest of the problem. Now let's put it together:

5x = 1345.

Now we can solve. To single out the variable (x) to find our answer, divide 5 into 1345:

5x = 1345

5        5

So, 1345 ÷ 5 = 269. After that, we are left with x and 269 (because the 5 was canceled out with the division). So, the answer is:

x = 269.

I hope that this helps.
