Answer:

W = 80

Explanation:

In algebra, the goal is always to isolate the variable, so that its value can be determined.

Step 1: Subtract 7

20 = W/4

Step 2: Multiply by 4

W = 80

Step 3: Check

27 = 7 + 80/4

27 = 7 + 20

27 = 27 ✔️

I'm always happy to help :)

Answer:

W=80

Explanation:

27= 7+W/4

27-7=W/4

20=W/4

Multiply by 4 on both sides to get rid of denominator 4.

80=W
