Find the x value of 3x=27

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to get x by itself.

3x=27

x is being multiplied by 3. To undo this, divide both sides by 3. We divide because it is the opposite of multiplication.

3x/3=27/3

The 3s on the left cancel, so we are left with

x=9

9 because 27/3 is 9
