Question

How do u do this problem: W/6+5/8=-1 3/8
I got this answer: -1 53/64

Answer 1

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.w6+58=(−1)(3)8
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.16w+58=−38
Step 2: Subtract 5/8 from both sides.16w+58−58=−38−5816w=−1
Step 3: Divide both sides by 1/6.16w16=−116w=−6
Answer:w=−6

Answer 2

We have question

`(W)/(6)+ (5)/(8) =-1 (3)/(8)`

`(W)/(6) + (5)/(8) =- (11)/(8)` /*8 (multiply both sides by 8)

`(W8)/(6) + (5)/(1) =- (11)/(1)` /*6 (multiply both sides by 6)

`8W+5*6=-11*6` /-30 both sides
8W=-66-30
8W=-96
W=-12
