Question

If 5c−2=3c, what is the value of 24c?
A) 6
B) 8
C) 16
D) 24

Answer 1

Explanation:

5c-2=3c

c = 1

24c = 24

Answer: D) 24

Answer 2

c = 1

Explanation:

In order to find the value of 24c, we will find the value of c first; in order to find c, we need to solve the equation :
`\sf{5c-2=3c}`.

So first, add 2 to both sides:

`\sf{5c=3c+2}`

Subtract 3c from both sides:

`\sf{2c=2}`

Divide both sides by 2:

`\sf{c=1}`
