Can someone help me 3/4h - 12= 8 5/8

Answer 1

Hello there,

Can someone help me 3/4h - 12= 8 5/8
3/4h - 12= 8 5/8

First, add 12 to both sides
Next, multiply both sides by 4
Last, divide both sides by 3

Final Answer: 30.16667 or h=181/6

Answer 2

I have to assume that your "h" is a variable and that this variable has the coefficient (3/4).  If I'm wrong, correct me!

Then (3/4)h - 12 = 8 5/8, or

           (3/4)h = 12 + 69/8               The LCD here is 8.  Mult. all terms by 8.

6h = 96 + 69     =>    6h = 165.     Then h = 165/6    (Can't be reduced, but
                                                       can be written as 27 1/2)
