In one year Megan spent 359.94 on her gym membership at the same monthly rate of 59.99. Write an equation to represent this situation. Identify and define your variable

359.94 = 59.99 * X

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is determined by the following equation:

T = M * X

Being M the monthly value, that is to say 59.99

T the total value, that is 359.94

And X would be the number of months, and at the same time the variable.

In this case it would be like this:

359.94 = 59.99 * X

If we solve for X, we are left with:

X = 359.94 / 59.99

X = 6

That is to say that Megan went to the gym for 6 months of the year
