Question
Solve the following equation and verify the answer:
$\frac{\text{x}}{5}=12$
$\frac{\text{x}}{5}=12$
✓
Answer
$\frac{\text{x}}{5}=12$ $\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{5}\times5=12\times5$ [Multiplying both the sides by 5] $\Rightarrow \text{x}=60$ Verification: Substituting x = 60 in the L.H.S.$\Rightarrow\frac{60}{5}=12=\text{R.H.S.}$
$\Rightarrow\text{L.H.S.}=\text{R.H.S.}$
Hence, verified.
$\Rightarrow\text{L.H.S.}=\text{R.H.S.}$
Hence, verified.
