k+9=15k
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
k+9-15k=0
Subtract 15k from both sides.
-14k+9=0
Combine k and -15k to get -14k.
-14k=-9
Subtract 9 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
k=\frac{-9}{-14}
Divide both sides by -14.
k=\frac{9}{14}
Fraction \frac{-9}{-14} can be simplified to \frac{9}{14} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
