18. Heidi, a jewelry salesperson, earns a commission of $55 every time she sells a diamond ring. How many rings does she have to sell to earn $605? Choose the equation that correctly calculates the amount.
A. $55 + w = $605
B. $605 - $55 = w
C. $55 x w = $605
D. $55 - w = $605 - w
I would do 605/55=X but its not there so im not sure what to pick

C. $55 x w = $605
your equation (605/55=X) is pretty much the same as 55w=605
if you replace X with w (605/55=w)
and then you multiply both sides of the equation by 55
you get 605 = 55w, which is C.

You are correct with 605/55 = X
Rearranging this gives 605 = 55X (or 55w, using the given variable).
So the answer is C.

wow, i can't believe your math teacher didn't teach you how to divide!!!
the answer is C. $55 x w = $605
dividing both sides by $55 gives the equation you mentioned above (605/55=x)
don't quit your day job man!
