4.5w=5.1w-30, how do I solve it

Gala2k [10]

First you have to get the same variables on one side so you’d subtract 5.1w from both sides, making the equation -0.6w = -30

then you want to single out the variable, diving -0.6 on both sides making the new equation and the answer w = 50

hope this helps!
