Explain why 30 ÷ xx = 6 is the same as 30 − x − x − x − x − x − x = 0. What is the value of x in this example?

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

(Sorry if this is wrong, I'm just assuming that the 30 divided by xx thing was a mistake and that you may have meant x)

Alright, so if we were to divide 30 by 6, then we'd get 5. That must mean dividing 30 by 5 would be 6.

To that next equation, we're basically subtracting 5 from 30, 6 times.

So that'd look like:

30-5=25

25-5=20

20-5=15

15-5=10

10-5=5

5-5=0

Which means that in both equations, plugging in 5 would bring the correct end results.

I hope this helped.
