b=34
Consider the first equation. Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
100k+6=33.4
Consider the second equation. Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
100k=33.4-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
100k=27.4
Subtract 6 from 33.4 to get 27.4.
k=\frac{27.4}{100}
Divide both sides by 100.
k=\frac{274}{1000}
Expand \frac{27.4}{100} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
k=\frac{137}{500}
Reduce the fraction \frac{274}{1000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
b=34 k=\frac{137}{500}
The system is now solved.
