Solve the following equation
300+0.05c=600+0.01c
Solve for c
300 + 0.05c = 600 + 0.01c
Group variables
Group our variables 0.05c and 0.01c
subtract 0.01c from both sides
0.05c + 300 - 0.01c = 0.01c + 600 - 0.01c
Cancel 0.01c on the right side:
0.04c + 300 = 600
Divide each side by 300
| 300c | |
| 300 |
| = |
| 0.05 |
| 300 |
Group constants
Group our constants 300 and 600.
subtract 300 from both sides
0.04c + 300 - 300 = 600 - 300
Cancel 300 on the left side:
0.04c = 300
Divide each side of the equation by 0.04
| 0.04c | |
| 0.04 |
| = |
| 300 |
| 0.04 |
c = 7500
Final Answer
c = 7500
