Answer:
q = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5-0.125q=(q-1)/4
At first, we have to multiply both the sides by 4.
4 × (0.5 - 0.125q) = q - 1
or, 2 - 0.5q = q - 1
now, we change the side by taking constant into the right side and the number into the left side.
2 + 1 = q + 0.5q
or, 3 = q (1 + 0.5)
or, 3 = 1.5 q
or, 1.5 q = 3
or, = (3 ÷ 1.5) [Dividing both the sides by 1.5]
or, q = 2
Therefore, q = 2
