## anonymous 4 years ago Fill in the missing number 84/6- Missing Number x 3 =11

1. anonymous

84/6-m.3=11 84/6-11=3m 18/6=3m 3=3m 1=m m:missing number

2. darkprince14

is the 1st equation m*3?

3. anonymous

yep

84/6-Missing Number x 3 =11

5. darkprince14

was three multiplied to m or is it multiplied to the fraction??

yes

@Selena2345, I thought you said you understood after the last problem which was exactly the same. Were you being less than honest?

if it is multiplied to the fraction, it's like this: (84/6-m) (3) = 11 then, divide 3 from both sides(the same as mutiplying 1/3 to both sides) $\frac{ 1 }{3 } \left( \frac{ 84 }{ 6-m} \right)\left( 3 \right) = \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } \left( 11 \right)$ so, it'll be like this $\frac{ 84 }{ 6-m } = \frac{ 11 }{ 3 }$ cross multiply (6-m)(11) = (84)(3) 66 - 11m = 252 -11m = 252 - 66 -11m = 186 $\frac{ -11m }{ -11 } = \frac{ 186 }{ -11 }$

don't know if it's righ... t try checking it.. $m = \frac{-186? }{ 11 }$

thank you so much your the best

@calculusfunctions Is my solution right?? i kinda doubt my answers..

@darkprince, your first answer of m = 1 is perfect! Your second answer however, is incorrect. The question is$\frac{ 84 }{ 6 }-3m =11$Therefore as I said, your first response was perfect!

sorry..i got the wrong picture.. if you simplified the fraction, you'll get 14-3m = 11 14 - 11 = 3m 3 =3m 1 = m
