Question

Solve the equation: 2.5t=20

Answer 1

2.5t=20
t=20/(2.5)
t=8
just divide 20 by 2.5 to get 8

Answer 2

Adreanna, this is the solution to the exercise:

Let's solve for t:

2.5t = 20

Step 1: Multiply by 10 at both sides to deal with whole numbers, as follows:

2.5t * 10 = 20 * 10

25t = 200

Step 2: Now we divide by 25 at both sides to solve for t, this way:

25t/25 = 200/25

t = 8
