Question

How do you solve `f/5-22 = -25`?

Answer 1

`f=-15`

Explanation:

`f/5-22=-25`

Add 22 to both sides which gives you:

`f/5=-3`

Then multiply 5 to both sides:

`f=-15`

Answer 2

`f=-15`

Explanation:

`"add 22 to both sides"`

`f/5cancel(-22)cancel(+22)=-25+22`

`rArrf/5=-3`

`"multiply both sides by 5"`

`cancel(5)xxf/cancel(5)=5xx-3`

`rArrf=-15" is the solution"`
