Posted by Julie on Sunday, October 18, 2009 at 7:41pm.

I am a parent of a 10 year old, 5th grader and my hubby and I just can't figure these out to help her. Anyone?? Thanks in advance.

27 = 8k divide k = ??

5a - 3a = 18 a = ??

12r - 4r = 48 r = ??

g = 7(10-3) g = ??

These are finding the unknown number in each equation.
Thanks so much

    27 = 8k
    Divide both sides of the equation by 8.

    27/8 = k
    3.375 = k

    5a - 3a = 18

    a = 9
