Question

3/7 = h/14 - 2/7 solve for h?

Answer 1

6 = h - 4
-h + 6 = -4
-h = 4 - 6
-h = -10

Change the signs on both sides of the equation.

h = 10

Answer 2

h=10

Explanation:

3/7 = h/14 - 2/7

Add 2/7 to each side

3/7+2/7 = h/14 +2/7 -2/7

5/7 = h/14

Multiply both sides by 14 to isolate h

5/7 * 14 = h/14*14

5 * 14/7 =h

5*2 =h

10=h
