Equation

[cjstanley85]

2k/5 + 3/4= 2

2k/5 + 3/4 -3/4= 2 - 3/4

2k/5 = 5/4

2k/5 x 5 = 5/4 x 5

2k = 25/4

2k/2 = 25/4 / 2

k= 3.13

?

2k/5 + 3/4= 2

2k/5 + 3/4 -3/4= 2 - 3/4

2k/5 = 5/4

2k/5 x 5 = 5/4 x 5

2k = 25/4

2k/2 = 25/4 / 2

k= 3.13

Your work all looks good (although, your notation needs improvement)

This answer is correct, but it's been rounded from 3 decimal places to 2 decimal places.

Why did you round it ?

k = 25/8 = 3.125
