To solve for w, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.
First, we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
w - 5 2/5 = 3 1/4
w - 27/5 = 13/4
Then, we can simplify by getting rid of fractions. To do this, we can find a common denominator of 20 for both sides:
4w/4 - (27/5) * 4/4 = (13/4) * 5/5
4w/4 - 108/20 = 65/20
Next, we can combine like terms:
4w/4 = 173/20
Finally, we can solve for w by multiplying both sides by 4:
w = (4 * 173)/20
w = 34.6
Therefore, w is equal to 34.6.
