Question

1.6k = 3.2 need help solving

Answer 1

If it is the decimals that are giving you trouble, you can multiply both sides by 10, giving you 16k=32
To find k you divide both sides by 16
(16k)/16=(32)/16
The 16's cancel out, and the 32/16 becomes 2.
Final answer:
K=2

Answer 2

You isolate the variable k. So if k is being multiplied by 1.6, you need to divide both sides by 1.6. Which leaves us with k= 3.2/1.6 or k = 2
