Question on Finding Values of a Variable in an Equation

Topic : Solve for the value of K

Question : If 5(K- 4) = 4 - 3K , Find the Value of K

Solution :

5(K-4) = 4 – 3K

Open the parenthesis,

=> 5K – 20 = 4 - 3K

Subtracting 3K on both sides,

8K = 24 (divide both sides by 8)

8K/8=24/8

Therefore K=3
