Question

What value of t satisfies the equation t/8-3/4=9/16

Answer 1

`(t)/(8)` -
`(3)/(4)` =
`(9)/(16)` Multiply both sides by 8 to get t out of the fraction
t -
`(3 x 8)/(4)` =
`(9 x 8)/(16)` Simplify the numerators
t -
`(24)/(4)` =
`(72)/(16)` Divide the fractions
t - 6 = 4
`(1)/(2)` Add 6 to both sides
t = 10
`(1)/(2)`
