Answer:

h=12.5

Explanation:

To solve for h, we need to isolate the variable

h+3h+4h =100

Combine like terms by adding h, 3h and 4h

8h=100

Divide both sides by 8 to "reverse" the multiplication being done to h

8h/8=100/8

The 8s on the left will cancel, leaving us with:

h=12.5

Answer:

h = 12.5

Explanation:

Simplifying

h + 3h + 4h = 100

Combine like terms: h + 3h = 4h

4h + 4h = 100

Combine like terms: 4h + 4h = 8h

8h = 100

Solving

8h = 100

Solving for variable 'h'.

Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '8'.

h = 12.5

Simplifying

h = 12.5
