You can put this solution on YOUR website!
8 times x = 62
\n" ); document.write( "OR
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x=62\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "How do you get x on its own? Well we want to remove the 8. How do we do that? Well the 8 is being multiplied by x. So if we do the opposite (inverse) to both sides we can remove the 8.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So we do \"%288x%29%2F8+=+%2862%2F8%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Can you do the last step?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Get back to me if you can't.
