Solve 36/5=F-32/9

$$\frac { 36 } { 5 } = \frac { F - 32 } { 9 }$$

Solve for F

$$F = \frac{484}{5} = 96\frac{4}{5} = 96.8$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by 9.

$$\frac{36}{5}\times 9=F-32$$

Express \frac{36}{5}\times 9 as a single fraction.

$$\frac{36\times 9}{5}=F-32$$

Multiply 36 and 9 to get 324.

$$\frac{324}{5}=F-32$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$F-32=\frac{324}{5}$$

Add 32 to both sides.

$$F=\frac{324}{5}+32$$

Convert 32 to fraction \frac{160}{5}.

$$F=\frac{324}{5}+\frac{160}{5}$$

Since \frac{324}{5} and \frac{160}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$F=\frac{324+160}{5}$$

Add 324 and 160 to get 484.

$$F=\frac{484}{5}$$
