Question

type the correct whole number in the box. use numbers instead of words. what whole number makes the equation true? \\(\square \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{8}{2}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Let the unknown number be \( x \)

The equation is \( x \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{8}{2} \)

Step2: Solve for \( x \)

Multiply both sides of the equation by \( 2 \) to isolate \( x \). So \( x = \frac{8}{2} \times 2 \)
Simplify the right - hand side: \( \frac{8}{2}\times2 = 8\times\frac{2}{2}=8\times1 = 8 \)

Answer:

8
