Question

What is the value of g when 6.3g + 8 = 2.3g + 28?

Answer 1

g = 5

Explanation:

6.3g + 8 = 2.3g + 28

Subtract 2.3g from each side

6.3g-2.3g + 8 = 2.3g-2.3g + 28

4g +8 = 28

Subtract 8 from each side

4g+8-8= 28-8

4g = 20

Divide by 4

4g/4 = 20/4

g = 5

Answer 2

g=5

Explanation:

6.3g + 8 = 2.3g + 28

Subtract 2.3g from each side

6.3g-2.3g + 8 = 2.3g-2.3g + 28

4g +8 = 28

Subtract 8 from each side

4g+8-8= 28-8

4g = 20

Divide by 4

4g/4 = 20/4

g = 5
