Question

Solve 2(L) + 3(4L) = 990.50

Answer 1

2(L) is 2L and 3(4L) is 12L
SO 12+2(L)= 14(L)
990.50 divided by 14 (L) is 70.75
Therefore L=70.75

Answer 2

L = 70.75

Explanation:

2(L) + 3(4L) = 990.50

Distribute, combine like terms,

2L + 12L = 14L = 990.50

Divide both sides by 14.

L = 70.75
