Mrs. Boyler wrote an equation on the board. She asked the students to solve for the variable, d. Akeem solved it on his paper using the following steps.


Step 1 d over 0.13 equals 5.2
Step 2 the product of 0.13 and d over 0.13 equals 5.2 divided by 0.13
Step 3 d = 40


Part A: Review Akeem's work for solving the equation. State the step in which the error occurred, and describe the error using your mathematics vocabulary. (8 points)

Part B: Solve the equation, correcting any errors you may find. Show all the steps in your work. (4 points)

HELPPPPP



Answer :

a. The step in which the error occurred that Mrs Boyler made is step 2 and the error using your mathematics vocabulary is that he didn't cross multiply.

b. The final value of the equation is d = 0.676.

What is an equation?

A mathematical equation is the statement that illustrates that the variables given. In this case, two or more components are taken into consideration to describe the scenario.

The equation is given as:

d / 0.13 = 5.2

Cross multiply

d = 0.13 × 5.2

d = 0.676
