Answer:
The correct answer is Option 1: multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is:
[tex]20 = \frac{w}{6}[/tex]
Given equation is a linear equation with one variable w. In order to solve the linear equations in one variable, properties of equality are used.
Solving for w means that w has to be isolated on one side of the equation i.e. w should be without a multiple or denominator.
The equation will be multiplied by 6 to remove the denominator in w/6
[tex]20*6 = \frac{w}{6} *6\\w = 120[/tex]
Hence,
The correct answer is Option 1: multiplication
