r/5 - 6 = -1

1 answer

To solve the equation r/5 - 6 = -1, you need to isolate the variable "r".

First, add 6 to both sides of the equation:

r/5 - 6 + 6 = -1 + 6.
r/5 = 5.

Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction:

(r/5) * 5 = 5 * 5.
r = 25.

Therefore, the solution to the equation r/5 - 6 = -1 is r = 25.
