Solvfe for r

Question

1/2r - 3 = 394-3/2r)

Answer 1

To solve for r, we'll start by simplifying the equation:

1/2r - 3 = 394 - (3/2r)

Next, let's get rid of the fractions by multiplying every term by 2:

2 * (1/2r - 3) = 2 * (394 - (3/2r))

This simplifies to:

r - 6 = 788 - 3r

Next, let's isolate the variables on one side and the constants on the other side:

r + 3r = 788 + 6

Combining like terms:

4r = 794

Finally, divide both sides by 4 to solve for r:

r = 794/4

r = 198
