Question 160441
{{{7/w=8/w-1/11}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{77=88-w}}} Multiply <b>every</b> term by the LCD 11w to clear the fractions.



{{{77-88=-w}}} Subtract 88 from both sides.



{{{-11=-w}}} Combine like terms



{{{(-11)/(-1)=w}}} Divide both sides by -1 to isolate w.



{{{11=w}}} Reduce



So the answer is {{{w=11}}}
