Question

Solve the equation3+z/4=1 + 3/8z

Answer 1

To solve the given equation isolate the variable z to one of the sides of the equal sign:

`\begin{gathered} 3+(z)/(4)=1+(3)/(8)z \\ (z)/(4)-(3)/(8)z=1-3 \\ (z)/(4)\cdot(2)/(2)-(3)/(8)z=-2 \\ (2)/(8)z-(3)/(8)z=-2 \\ -(1)/(8)z=-2 \\ z=-2\cdot-8 \\ z=16 \end{gathered}`

z has a value of 16.
