Solve k=12-k/2-k

$$k = \frac { 12 - k } { 2 } - k$$

Solve for k

$$k = \frac{12}{5} = 2\frac{2}{5} = 2.4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide each term of 12-k by 2 to get 6-\frac{1}{2}k.

$$k=6-\frac{1}{2}k-k$$

Combine -\frac{1}{2}k and -k to get -\frac{3}{2}k.

$$k=6-\frac{3}{2}k$$

Add \frac{3}{2}k to both sides.

$$k+\frac{3}{2}k=6$$

Combine k and \frac{3}{2}k to get \frac{5}{2}k.

$$\frac{5}{2}k=6$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{5}, the reciprocal of \frac{5}{2}.

$$k=6\times \frac{2}{5}$$

Express 6\times \frac{2}{5} as a single fraction.

$$k=\frac{6\times 2}{5}$$

Multiply 6 and 2 to get 12.

$$k=\frac{12}{5}$$
