Question

What is the value of h in the equation 8h = 60

Answer 1

Answer:

h= 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8h=60

One solution was found :

                  h = 15/2 = 7.500

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    8*h-(60)=0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  8h - 60  =   4 • (2h - 15)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    4   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    2h-15 = 0

Add  15  to both sides of the equation :

                     2h = 15

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

                    h = 15/2 = 7.500

One solution was found :

                  h = 15/2 = 7.500

Answer 2

Answer: h = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for h in this equation, we want to to get h by itself on the left side of the equation.

Since h is being multiplied by 8, to get h by itself, we need to divide by 8 on the left side of the equation.

If we divide by 8 on the left side,

we must also divide by 8 on the right side.

On the left, the 8's cancel out so we are simply left with h.

On the right we have 60/8 which is 7.5.

So we have h = 7.5.
