Question

write the sentence as an equation. 128 is the same as q divided by 186 type a slash ( / ) if you want to use a division sign.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the relationship

The sentence says "128 is the same as q divided by 186", so we need to express the division of q by 186 and set it equal to 128.

Step2: Write the equation

"q divided by 186" can be written as \( \frac{q}{186} \) (or \( q / 186 \)), and since it's the same as 128, the equation is \( 128=\frac{q}{186} \) (or \( 128 = q / 186 \)).

Answer:

\( 128 = \frac{q}{186} \) (or \( 128 = q / 186 \))
