To translate the given sentence into an equation, let's break it down:
"The product of Helena's savings and 2 is 28."
In this sentence, we are being asked to find Helena's savings, represented by the variable h. Since we are told that Helena's savings multiplied by 2 equals 28, we can write the equation as:
2h = 28
This equation states that the product of Helena's savings, represented by 2 multiplied by h (2h), is equal to 28.
2 h = 28
so
h = 28 / 2
