Solution:

Simplify the equation and solve for r.

  • r/16 + 6 = 7
  • => r/16 = 7 - 6
  • => r/16 = 1
  • => r = 16

The value of r is 16.

Check:

  • r/16 + 6 = 7
  • => 16/16 + 6 = 7
  • => 1 + 6 = 7
  • => 7 = 7 (Proved correct)

Answer:


r = 16

Explanation:


(r)/(16) + 6 = 7


(r)/(16) +(96)/(16) = 7 [ make the denominators same ]


(r + 96)/(16) = 7


r+96 = 7 * 16 [ changing sides, changes multiplication to division ]


r + 96 = 112


r = 112 - 96\\ [ changing sides, changes addition to subtraction ]


r = 16

we can check if the value is correct or not:

If r = 16:


(16)/(16) + 6


1 +6


7

[ Therefore r being 16, confirmed ]
