Question

Solve for w in the equation: 0.4w + 2.45 = 8.75

Answer 1

w= 15.75 or 15 3/4

Explanation:

So I would multiply 100 on both sides to get rid of the decimals so I’d end up with 40w+245=875

Now solve it by subtracting 245 on both sides.

40w=630

now divided 40 on both sides

15 3/4

Final answer 15 3/4 or 15.75
