Question 321961: Please help me solve this problem (finding the pronumeral value) and explain the solution:
5t-7 divided by 19 = 2

Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5t - 7 / 19 = 2

Multiply both sides of this equation by 19 to get:

5t - 7 = 38

Add 7 to both sides of this equation to get:

5t = 45

Divide both sides of this equation by 5 to get:

t = 9

Substitute in your original equation to get:

(5t-7)/19 = 2 which becomes:

(5*9-7)/19 = 2 which becomes:

(45-7)/19 = 2 which becomes:

38/19 = 2 which becomes:

2 = 2 which is true confirming that the value of 9 for t is good.
