Question

How do you solve `\frac { 3} { 4} = - \frac { 1} { 4} c`?

Answer 1

`c=-3`

Explanation:

Note that `-1/4c=-c/4`

`rArr3/4=-c/4" is to be solved"`

multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to ' eliminate' fractions.

`(cancel(4)^1xx3/cancel(4)^1)=(cancel(4)^1xx-c/cancel(4)^1)`

`rArr3=-c" or " c=-3`
