Solve the following equation
200-25w=15w
Solve for w
200 - 25w = 15w
Group variables
Group our variables -25w and 15w
subtract 15w from both sides
-25w + 200 - 15w = 15w - 15w
Cancel 15w on the right side:
-40w + 200 = 0
Divide each side by 200
| 200w | |
| 200 |
| = |
| -25 |
| 200 |
Group constants
Group our constants 200 and 0.
subtract 200 from both sides
-40w + 200 - 200 = 0 - 200
Cancel 200 on the left side:
-40w = -200
Divide each side of the equation by -40
| -40w | |
| -40 |
| = |
| -200 |
| -40 |
w = 5
Final Answer
w = 5
