Answer:
Let the number be x
From the given statement "3 times of a number equals to 27".
3 times of a number implies \(3 \times x\)
then,
\(3\times x =27\)
Division property of equality states that you divide the same number from both sides of an equation
Divide both sides by 3 , we get;
\(\frac{3\times x}{3} =\frac{27}{3}\)
Simplify:
x =9
therefore, 3 times 9 equals 27
