Question

2(12.25) + 5 + 2L = 62.5, I know the answer but I don't know how to get to the answer

Answer 1

Answer:

We conclude that:

$L = 16.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$2\left(12.25\right)\:+\:5\:+\:2L\:=\:62.5$

Remove parentheses: (a) = a

$2\cdot \:12.25+5+2L=62.5$

Multiply the numbers:  $2\cdot \:12.25=24.5$

$24.5+5+2L=62.5$

Add the numbers:  24.5+5=29.5

$2L+29.5=62.5$

Subtract 29.5 from both sides

$2L+29.5-29.5=62.5-29.5$

Simplify

$2L=33$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2L}{2}=\frac{33}{2}$

Simplify

$L=\frac{33}{2}$

$L = 16.5$

Therefore, we conclude that:

$L = 16.5$

Answer 2

The required value is L=16.5

Given equation is,

$2(12.25) + 5 + 2L = 62.5$

Simplification:

Simplification means finding the solution from the complex calculation.

Now, solving the given equation as,

$24.5+5+2L=62.5\\29.5+2L=62.5\\2L=62.5-29.5\\2L=33\\L=\frac{33}{2}\\ L=16.5$
