Question

3.38 = k(m+10)/50 where k and m are whole numbers what is the value of m?

Answer 1

see the above solution

Answer 2

Answer:

$m=\frac{169}{k}-10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $3.38=\frac{k(m+10)}{50}$ where k and m are whole numbers.

To find : What is the value of m?

Solution :

Solve the expression for m in term of k,

Expression $3.38=\frac{k(m+10)}{50}$

Multiply by 50 both side,

$3.38\times 50=\frac{k(m+10)\times 50}{50}$

$169=k(m+10)$

Divide by k both side,

$\frac{169}{k}=\frac{k(m+10)}{k}$

$\frac{169}{k}=m+10$

Subtract 10 both side,

$\frac{169}{k}-10=m+10-10$

$\frac{169}{k}-10=m$

Therefore, The value of m is $m=\frac{169}{k}-10$
