when renting a car from bob's car rentals,you have to pay 6 dollars a day so how many days do you need to rent the car to pay 36 dollars
cost=y=36
days=x
36=6x
divide both sides by 6
6=x
you must rent the car 6 days
or,
if I have 24 apples and I want to give the same number of apples to each of my 3 friends, how many apples does each friend get?
so 24/3=8 each friend gets 8 apples
