Question

701 - 5w = 21 + 63w Solve this equation, step by step.

Answer 1

701 = 21 + 68w
701-21= 680
680/68=10
w=10

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:  Your objective is to get the variable and what it equals by itself. Ex:  x = 2

701 - 5w = 21 + 63w              Subtract 21 from both sides to cancel out that

-21           -21                          number.

----------------------------------

680 - 5w =  63w                    add 5w from both sides  so that you cancel

      + 5w= + 5w                      out that varable.

--------------------------------

680 = 68w                            divide by 63 to get the variable and what it

/68    /68                               is equal to by itself

w = 10
