1. Solving One-Step Equations
Sign In
How can you eliminate the denominator on the right-hand side?
q=-117
To solve the equation we have to isolate q on one side. By multiplying both sides of the equation by 3, we can eliminate the denominator and isolate q.
LHS * 3=RHS* 3
a/3* 3 = a
(- a)b = - ab
Rearrange equation
We can check the solution by substituting it into the equation and simplifying.
Since q=-117 satisfies the equation, we have found the correct solution.
