Answer:

k=75

Explanation:


(k)/(5)+8=23

(subtract 8 from both sides of the equation)


(k)/(5)+8-8 = 23-8

(simplify)


(k)/(5) = 15

(multiple all terms by the same value to eliminate fractional denominators)

5.
(k)/(5) = 5.15

(cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator, multiply the numbers)

k=75
