Question

fill the empty slots by dragging tiles from the left to show the next step for solving the equation.
1.2
5.16
/ ×
1.2 x = 5.16
solve the equation $1.2x=5.16$ for $x$.
$x=\square$
show result

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x via division

Divide both sides by 1.2:
$$\frac{1.2x}{1.2} = \frac{5.16}{1.2}$$

Step2: Simplify to solve for x

Cancel 1.2 on left, compute right:
$$x = \frac{5.16}{1.2}$$

Answer:

$x = 4.3$

(For the tile step: Drag the $\div$ and 1.2 tiles to the first empty slots below $1.2x$, and drag $\div$ and 1.2 tiles to the empty slots below 5.16, creating $\frac{1.2x}{1.2} = \frac{5.16}{1.2}$)
