144 subtracted from the product of 100 and z equals 220

1 answer

To find the value of z, we can set up the equation:

100z - 144 = 220

To solve for z, we will first add 144 to both sides of the equation:

100z = 220 + 144

Simplifying further, we get:

100z = 364

Now, we can divide both sides of the equation by 100:

z = 364/100

Thus, the value of z is 3.64
