Question

How do you convert to algebraic expression: 9 times a number divided by 5 is 18?

Answer 1

The algebraic expression is `(9n)/5 = 18`.

Explanation:

First, let's let "a number" be `n`.

Let's split this up:
"9 times a number":
`9n`

"divided by 5":
`(9n)/5`

"is 18":
`(9n)/5 = 18`

If you want to solve this, you multiply both sides by `5`, then divide both sides by `9`, and you should get `n = 10`.

Hope this helps!
