1 answer

To solve the equation 0.24x - 0.47 = -1.1, you need to isolate the variable x.

First, add 0.47 to both sides of the equation:

0.24x - 0.47 + 0.47 = -1.1 + 0.47

This simplifies to:

0.24x = -0.63

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 0.24 to solve for x:

0.24x/0.24 = -0.63/0.24

This simplifies to:

x = -2.625

Therefore, the correct number to complete the solution is -2.625.
