You are told that the letter "x" means the same as "a number."
.
Therefore, in the statement "a number" divided by 8, you can replace "a number" with "x" and
the statement becomes "x" divided by 8
.
and this can be written using the division symbol in place of "divided" to get answers
as follows:
.
x � 8 or
.
x/8 or
.

.
Those three answers are just different versions of the same thing. All are correct.
.
Hope this helps you to understand the problem
