R over 5 + 37 = 88 what is R

Sagot :

Use the properties of equalities to solve the equation and find the value of R.

[tex]\frac{R}{5}+37=88[/tex]

First, subtract 37 from both members of the equation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow\frac{R}{5}+37-37=88-37 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{R}{5}=51 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Next, multiply both members of the equation by 5 to get rid of the denominator on the left member:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow5\times\frac{R}{5}=5\times51 \\ \\ \Rightarrow R=255 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of R is 255.
