When you have to divide by a fraction, you have to multiply the other number by the fraction's reciprocal.
8 = 3/4 w Divide by 3/4
w = 8/(3/4)
w = 8/ (3/4) = 8 x 4/3 Multiply by the numerator and divide by the denominator.
w = (8 x 4) / 3
w = 32 / 3
w = 10 2/3
Answer:
to be entirely honest i do not know
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
5 = 1/2(x) - 3
Add 3 to both sides.
8 = 1/2(x)
Rewrite for clarity.
1/2(x) = 8
x/2 = 8
Multiply both sides by 2.
x = 16.
Proof:
5 = 1/2(x) - 3
Substitute variable.
5 = 1/2(16) - 3
Multiply 1/2 and 16.
5 = 8 - 3
Subtract 3 from 8.
5 = 5
