Hey there!


\bold{(v)/(4) - 3 = 5}

  • Substitute the
    \bold{v} as a invisible
    \bold{1} (for now)

  • \bold{(1)/(4)v -3 =5}

  • \boxed{\boxed{Add}} by the number
    \bold{3} on each of your sides

  • (1)/(4)v-3+3=5+3

  • \boxed{\boxed{Cancel}}}
    -3+3 because it gives you the result of
    \bold{0}

  • \boxed{\boxed{Keep}}
    \bold{5+3} because it helps us solve for our answer

  • \bold{5+3= 8 }
  • Equation becomes:
    \bold{(1)/(4)v = 8 }
  • Nextly, let's
    \boxed{\boxed{multiply}} by the number
    \bold{4} on each of your sides

  • \bold{4*(1)/(4) = 4*8 }

  • \boxed{\boxed{Cancel}}
    4*(1)/(4)v because it equals
    \bold{1}

  • \boxed{\boxed{Keep}}
    4*8 because it gives us the value of
    \bold{v}

  • \boxed{Answer: v = 32}

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day
