Question

What is the value of k

Answer 1

$\frac{3}{4}$k - 5 = $\frac{1}{4}$k - 1 
So, now we combine like terms...
To combine like terms, 
(You can either move  $\frac{1}{4}$ k to other side by subtracting both sides by it or you can also move $\frac{3}{4}$k  to other side by subtracting both sides by that..)
$\frac{3}{4}$k -  $\frac{1}{4}$ - 5 = -1 (I've moved 1/4)
$\frac{2}{4}$k - 5 = -1 (After reducing 2/4 ,, you get 1/2)
$\frac{1}{2}$k -5 = -1    (Adding both sides with 5)
$\frac{1}{2}$k = 4 
$\frac{k}{2}$ = 4 (After rewriting it )
Multiplying both sides by 2.
k= 8

Doneeee....

Hope I made sense!
