2k-3m=16

The value of k.

add 3m to both sides :

2k = 16 + 3m

divide both sides by 2 :

k = 16/2 + 3m/2

k = 8 + 3m/2

Hello!

Answer:

$\Large \boxed{\sf k = 8+ (3m)/(2)}$

Explanation:

We want to solve k in this equation:

$\sf 2k-3m=16$

◼ Add 3m to both sides:

$\sf 2k-3m+3m=16+3m$

◼ Simplify both sides:

$\sf 2k=16+3m$

◼ Divide both sides by 2:

◼ Simplify both sides:

$\boxed{\sf k = 8+ (3m)/(2)}$

Conclusion:

In the equation 2k - 3m = 16, k is equal to 8 + 3m/2.
