Solve for k.
12/k = 3

k=3/12

k=.25

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to get k by itself

because 12 is over k we need to get rid of it by moving it to the other side (multiplying) because it is 12/k we need to multiply it by 1/12

This eliminates 12 and leaves us with k=3/12

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
