The first step in solving the equation is "subtract 5 on both sides of the equation".
The distribution of weights to the variables involved that establishes the equilibrium in the calculation is referred to as a result.
The equation is given below.
5 + k/8 = 3
The first step in solving the equation is "subtract 5 on both sides of the equation".
k/8 = 3 - 5
k/8 = -2
Then multiply the equation by 8 on both sides, then the value of k will be
k = -2 x 8
k = -16
The first step in solving the equation is "subtract 5 on both sides of the equation".
