To find the unknown number, we start by setting up the equation based on the information given. We know that multiplying 9, 7, and the unknown number (let’s call it x) gives us 63. So we can express this as:
9 × 7 × x = 63
First, we need to calculate the product of 9 and 7:
9 × 7 = 63
This simplifies our equation to:
63 × x = 63
Now, to isolate x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 63:
x = 63 / 63
This simplifies to:
x = 1
Thus, the number we are looking for is 1.
