Answer:

g=5 i hope this helps if u need me to explain more i can i love math sooo much

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

27=5g+2

Step 2: Flip the equation.

5g+2=27

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

5g+2−2=27−2

5g=25

Step 4: Divide both sides by 5.

5g/5=25/5

g=5
