Solve the following equation

5.50w+50=7.75w+18.50

Solve for w

5.50w + 50 = 7.75w + 18.50

Group variables

Group our variables 5.50w and 7.75w
subtract 7.75w from both sides

5.50w + 50 - 7.75w = 7.75w + 18.5 - 7.75w

Cancel 7.75w on the right side:

-2.25w + 50 = 18.50

Divide each side by 5.50

5.50w
5.50
=
  
50
5.50

-2.25w = -31.5

Divide each side of the equation by -2.25

-2.25w
-2.25
=
  
-31.5
-2.25

w = 14

Final Answer


w = 14
