Question

What is the value of g? 25(g−7)=3 Enter your answer in the box

Answer 1

25(g-7)-3=0
25g-178=0
g= 178:25=
7.12

Answer 2

Answer: The value of g is 7.12.

Explanation:

The given equation is,

$25(g-7)=3$

Use distributive property to solve the equation.

$25g-175=3$

Using addition property of equality add 175 both sides.

$25g-175+175=3+175$

$25g=178$

Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 25.

$\frac{25g}{25} =\frac{178}{25}$

$g=\frac{178}{25}$

$g=7.12$

Therefore the value of g is 7.12.

To check the answer put the value of g in given equation.

$25(7.12-7)=3$

$25(0.12)=3$

$3=3$

LHS is equal to RHS, therefore the value g=7.12 is correct.
