Answer:

Keaton is correct.

Explanation:

w/3 + (-2) = 10

+2 +2

w/3 = 12

multiple 3 on both sides to get rid of the fraction bc fraction means division

w = 36

Answer:

Keaton solved it right.

Explanation:

Both students did the first step correctly, but Emily divided on the last step instead of multiplying. When there is a division on the other side of the equation, you would have to multiply the denominator on both sides. Keaton correctly multiplied the denominator of 3 on each side which gives 12 * 3 = 36.

I really hope this helps! :)
