Answer:

w =
(1)/(4)

Explanation:

given

-
(w)/(5) =
(w)/(5) -
(1)/(10)

multiply through by 10 ( the LCM of 5 and 10 ) to clear the fractions

- 2w = 2w - 1 ( subtract 2w from both sides )

- 2w - 2w = 2w - 2w - 1 (simplify )

- 4w = - 1 ( divide both sides by - 4 )


(-4)/(-4) w =
(-1)/(-4) , that is

w =
(1)/(4)
