Question

What value of s in this equation? 1/3s+14=16

Answer 1

Answer:

s = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3s + 14 = 16...subtract 14 from both sides

1/3s = 16 - 14

1/3s =2 ....multiply both sides by 3, this cancels the 1/3 out

(3)1/3s = 2(3)

s = 6 <==== ur answer

check..

1/3s + 14 = 16

1/3(6) + 14 = 16

6/3 + 14 = 16

2 + 14 = 16

16 = 16 (correct)

Answer 2

Answer:

s=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by 3:

s+42=48

Move constant to the right:

s=48-42

Subtract the numbers:

s=6
