Question

Solve for cc.
start fraction, c, divided by, 7, end fraction, minus, 31, equals, minus, 29
7
c
​
−31=
−29

Answer 1

To solve the equation

\[
\frac{c}{7} - 31 = -29,
\]

we'll start by isolating \(\frac{c}{7}\).

1. Add 31 to both sides of the equation:

\[
\frac{c}{7} = -29 + 31.
\]

2. Calculate the right-hand side:

\[
-29 + 31 = 2.
\]

So, we have

\[
\frac{c}{7} = 2.
\]

3. Now, multiply both sides by 7 to solve for \(c\):

\[
c = 2 \times 7.
\]

4. Compute the right-hand side:

\[
c = 14.
\]

Thus, the solution for \(c\) is

\[
\boxed{14}.
\]
