#a=36/4 = 9#

Arrange your equation first:

#atimes4 = 6times6#

Now you can write:

#a=36/4#

#a=9#

This is your answer. #a=9#

Answer 2 · 2017-07-14T13:25:52

#a = 9#

#a/6 = 6/4#

Multiply both sides by #6# to cancel the denominator and isolate the #a#

#(color(blue)(cancel6)xxa)/cancel6 = (color(blue)(6)xx6)/4#

#a = 36/4#

#a = 9#
