Reasoning: Is the solution of w x 11/12=19 greater than or less than 19? How can you tell without solving the equation
Explanation & Answer
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!
The solution is greater than 19.
The first thing to think about is: The solution to the above equation is the value of "w"
Also remember that 11/12 is less than one
So to get "w", you divide the right hand side of the above equation by 11/12 (actually the right hand side is 19), then you get that w is greater than 19.
It is more clear also if you solve it
w=19/(11/12)=20.7
