3 = (g)/( - 4) - 5what does g equals ?

Question

`3 = (g)/( - 4) - 5`what does g equals ?

Answer 1

To solve the equation, first, add 5 to both sides

`\begin{gathered} 3=(g)/(-4)-5 \\ 3+5=(g)/(-4)-5+5 \\ 8=(g)/(-4) \end{gathered}`

Now, multiply by -4 from both sides of the equation

`\begin{gathered} 8\cdot-4=(g)/(-4)\cdot-4 \\ -32=g \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the value of g is -32.
