Well first, you solve for C.

Step 1: Get C by itself.

C + 2/45 = 8/5

*Subtract "C" to both sides.

C + 2/45 = 8/5

-C -C

The problem now becomes 2/45 = 8/5c

Step 2: Divide 8/5 to both sides.

2/45 = 8/5c

-8/5

Step 3: Divide your fractions by doing reciprocal.

2/45 / 8/5

2/45 * 5/8

2 5

* = 10/360

45 8


10/360 can be simplified to 5/72

C = 5/72.
