0.06 x 0.5 = 0.03 (I think that is what you're asking)
7696 students if rounding out the answers. Because 90 times 7867 divided by 92 is 7695.95 and so on.
1. The first step is Distribution, a = 10a - 14. You can determine this by multiplying 2 into (5a - 7). 2*5a =10a, while 2*- 7 = - 14. Resulting in, a = 10a - 14.
2 . Now, subtract 10a on both sides, meaning 10a - 10a and a - 10a. The equation simplified is - 9a = - 14.
3. Divide by - 9 on both sides. The solution to the equation is a = 14/9
