Given the numerical equation:

8,472 divided by k = 12

Determine the value of k.

Solution:

In order to determine the value of k, we simply needed to equate first the values.

8,472/k = 12

Multiply both sides of the equation by k to cancel out k from the denominator.

8,472/k = 12

(k) 8,472/k = 12 (k)

8,472 =12k

Divide both sides by 12 to cancel out 12k, leaving behind k.

8,472/12 =12k/12

k = 706

Final answer:

k = 706
