54 ÷ 3/8
= 54 x 8/3
= 18 x 8
= 144
Let the number be x,
3/8*x=54
x=(54*8)/3
=144
You will first have to find 1/8 of the number=
54 divided by 3 = 18
once you have 1/8, you just multiply by 8 to get the answer... 144!
So 3/8 multiplied by a number is 54. This mystery number for now will be denoted by x.
3/8*x = 54
multiply both sides by 8 so you get:
3*x = 432
now divide both sides by 3 and you get:
x = 144
The number which 3/8 of is 54 is 144
Check 3/8 x 144=3x144/8=3 x 18 =54
A number's been chopped up into 8 equal bits.
Three of those equal bits together make 54.
First we need to work out what one of those bits is worh, so we divide the 54 by 3, which gives 18.
So each of the eight bits of the number we started with are worth 18. So the whole number is 8 lots of 18 - or 18x8 = 144
How's that? Not a single x to be seen anywhere! :-)
If 3/8 of the number x is 54
(3/8)x = 54
(1/8)x = 54/3
x = (54/3) 8
x = 144
if 3/8 of x=54, then 1/8 of x = 18 (54/3=18)
if 1/8 of x = 18, then 8/8 of x = 144 (18*8=144)
So 3/8 multiplied by a number is 54. This mystery number for now will be denoted by x.
3/8*x = 54
multiply both sides by 8 so you get:
3*x = 432
now divide both sides by 3 and you get:
x = 144
The number which 3/8 of is 54 is 144
if 3 is 54, one is 54 divided by three which is 18. if 1/8 is 18 , 8/8 is 144
If the number is x the (3/8)x =54 so x = 54(8/3) =144.
