Question

what is c- 1/2 + 16=36

Answer 1

Answer:

20 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

its 20 and a half because 16+20=36 and you just need to add a half to 20 since your taking it away

Answer 2

Answer:

c=20.5 or 41/2

Step-by-step explanation:

c- 1/2 + 16=36

Make C the subject

c=36-16+1/2

c=20+1/2

Using LCM

c=(40+1)/2

c=41/2

c=20.5

To check if we are correct, we substitute c with 41/2. and then both sides of the equation must be equal

c- 1/2 + 16=36

41/2-1/2+16=36

20+16=36

36=36
