The equation that represents the statement is: 0.4n = 8

The value of variable n = 20

Recall:

  • Product represents multiplication.

Thus:

Product of 0.4 and a number (n) is translated as 0.4 x n

  • Therefore,

0.4 x n = 8

0.4n = 8

We need to find the value of the variable, n.

  • Solve for n by dividing both sides by 0.4.

[tex]n = \frac{8}{0.4} \\\\\mathbf{n = 20}[/tex]

Therefore, the number that is multiplied by 0.4 to give 8, is: n = 20
