The value of u is -144
Solution:
Given that,
[tex]-24 = u \div 6[/tex]
We have to solve for "u"
From given,
[tex]-24 = u \div 6[/tex]
Convert the division problem into multiplication, by changing the division sign to multiplication sign. Then invert the number to right of division sign
Thus we get,
[tex]-24 = u \times \frac{1}{6}\\\\\frac{u}{6} = -24[/tex]
Isolate for u
[tex]u = -24 \times 6\\\\On\ multiplying\ both\ we\ get\\\\u = -144[/tex]
Thus the value of u is -144
