In a sloth sanctuary there are 84 sloths and they hang out in groups of 14 per tree. Which equation will tell us how many trees have sloths in them? \(?\)

\(84 \, \times \, 14 \, = \, x\)

\(x \, \times \, 84 \, = \, 14\)

There are 12 soda pops in the fridge. If Connor goes shopping and buys 4 more soda pops, which equation will tell us the total number of soda pops? \(?\)

\(x \, \times \, 12 \, = \, 4\)

\(12 \, \times \, 4 \, = \, x\)

\(18 \, \times \, 2 \, = \, x\)

\(x \, \times \, 18 \, = \, 2\)
