Question

write the sentence as an equation.
341 multiplied by b equals 87
type a slash ( / ) if you want to use a division sign.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify operation and equality

"341 multiplied by \( b \)" means \( 341 \times b \), and "equals 87" means \( = 87 \).

Step2: Form the equation

Combine the parts: \( 341 \times b = 87 \) (or \( 341b = 87 \) since multiplication of a number and variable can be written without the × sign).

Answer:

\( 341 \times b = 87 \) (or \( 341b = 87 \))
