Question

How can i isolate the term f/3 in f/3 + 22 = 17?

Answer 1

Below.

Explanation:

Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation:

f/3 + 22 - 22 = 17 - 22

f/3 = -5.

Answer 2

Subtract 22 from both sides.

Explanation:

To isolate f/3 in f/3 + 22 = 17, we should subtract 22 from both sides.

f/3 + 22 - 22 = 17 - 22

f/3 = -5

Now, to isolate f, we should multiply 3 to both sides.

f/3 × 3 = -5 × 3

f = -15
