Respuesta :
From the given statement, we can formulate the given expression or equation:
5 x = 14
To solve, simply divide both sides by 5, so that:
5 x / 5 = 14 / 5
x = 2.8
But the answer is not in the choices, kindly check if the problem or choices given is correct.
Answer:
[tex]x=\frac{14}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of 5 and a number x is 14
Product means the multiplication, multiply the number 5 and x becomes 5x
5x is 14. 5x is equal to 14
The equation becomes [tex]5x=14[/tex]
Now we divide 5 on both sides to get 'x' alone
[tex]5x=14[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{14}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{14}{5}[/tex]
So the value of x is 14/5
