Solve 18=752+20f/35+f

$$18 = \frac { 752 + 20 f } { 35 + f }$$

Solve for f

$$f=-61$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable f cannot be equal to -35 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by f+35.

$$18\left(f+35\right)=752+20f$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 18 by f+35.

$$18f+630=752+20f$$

Subtract 20f from both sides.

$$18f+630-20f=752$$

Combine 18f and -20f to get -2f.

$$-2f+630=752$$

Subtract 630 from both sides.

$$-2f=752-630$$

Subtract 630 from 752 to get 122.

$$-2f=122$$

Divide both sides by -2.

$$f=\frac{122}{-2}$$

Divide 122 by -2 to get -61.

$$f=-61$$
