Fabienne rolls a ball 72 inches across the floor. This is 9 times the distance that Olivier rolls his ball across the floor. Let n represent the number of inches Olivier rolls his ball.

How many inches does Olivier roll his ball?

Select each equation that can be used to solve this problem.

Since the 72 inches was nine times the distance that Oliver rolled his ball, it means that the unknown number (n), was multiplied by 9 to get Fabienne's inches. So, 9n = 72.

divide both sides by the number next to the unknown to get (n), the number of inches that Oliver rolled his ball.... which is 8.
