### Instruction: Which number should replace both the asterisks in (* /18) x (*/72) = 1 ?
Answer Choices: (A) 24 (B) 30 (C) 36 (D) 42 (E) 48 Let's write a program.### Response: # The equation can be simplified to (x^2) / (18*72) = 1, where x is the number that should replace the asterisks.
# Therefore, x = sqrt(18*72)
x = (18 * 72) ** 0.5
print(x)
