Question Find the value of $x$ if a number divided by 20 equals 5. A) $x=100$ B) $x=4$ C) $x=50$ D) $x=2$

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The number we are looking for is represented by the variable $x$ . The number is divided by20 to give the result5

STEP 2

We can represent the problem as an equation. The problem states that a number (which we'll call $x$ ) divided by20 equals5. So, we can write this as $\frac{x}{20} =5$

STEP 3

To solve for $x$ , we need to isolate $x$ on one side of the equation. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by20.
$x =5 \times20$

STEP 4

Now, we can calculate the value of $x$ .
$x = \times20 =100$ So, the number that divided by20 equals is100. Therefore, the correct answer is A) $x=100$ .
