How do you do -19+C/3=8 can someone teach how to solve this problem?
ki77a [65]
You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!

I think of a number, then divide by 5, then subtract 78 -the result is nine
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Imagine that the number that we are looking for is x

We know that:

x/5 - 78 = 9

x/5         = 9 + 78

x/5         = 87

x             = 87 . 5 = 435

So the number we need is 435
