Solve 33=1/2a(11)

$$33 = 1 / 2 a ( 11 )$$

Solve for a

$$a=6$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply \frac{1}{2} and 11 to get \frac{11}{2}.

$$33=\frac{11}{2}a$$

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

$$\frac{11}{2}a=33$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{11}, the reciprocal of \frac{11}{2}.

$$a=33\times \frac{2}{11}$$

Express 33\times \frac{2}{11} as a single fraction.

$$a=\frac{33\times 2}{11}$$

Multiply 33 and 2 to get 66.

$$a=\frac{66}{11}$$

Divide 66 by 11 to get 6.

$$a=6$$
