Answer: f = 14.6

Explanation:

Since you gave the equation 0.3 = 0.5f - 7, here are the following steps to solve:

1. Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction


0.3=(1f)/(2) -7

2. Multiply by 1


0.3 =(f)/(2) -7

3. Find Common Denominator


0.3 = (f)/(2) + (2(-7))/(2)

4. Combine fractions


0.3 = (f+2(-7))/(2)

5. Multiply


0.3=(f - 14)/(2)

6. Multiply all terms by the same number to eliminate denominators


2(0.3)= 2(f-14)/(2)

7. Simplify


0.6 = f-14

8. Add 14 to both sides


(0.6 + 14) = f (- 14 + 14)

9. Simplify


f= 14.6
