#a=5.9#

Explanation:

To solve this equation, simply add (#+#) #2.7# from each side.

#-2.7+2.7=0# on the left side...
#3.2+2.7=5.9# on the right side...

Hence the answer is #a=5.9#. To check we simply enter this value in on the left side:

#5.9-2.7=3.2#? Yes!

Therefore the equation checks out and everything is satisfied.

Answer: #a=5.9#
