solve for v

48-v=5v

1 answer

To solve for v, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

48 - v = 5v

To isolate v, we can add v to both sides of the equation:

48 - v + v = 5v + v

48 = 6v

Next, we want to isolate v on one side of the equation, so we can divide both sides of the equation by 6:

48/6 = 6v/6

8 = v

Therefore, v = 8 is the solution to the equation.
