Question 554099
The question "what does 5/3w = -10" equal" doesn't make sense. Instead, you would rather say "5/3w = -10, what does w equal?"


Additionally, are you saying


*[tex \LARGE \frac{5}{3}w = -10], or


*[tex \LARGE \frac{5}{3w} = -10]?


If *[tex \LARGE \frac{5}{3}w = -10] then you can multiply both sides by 3/5, yielding w = -6. Or, if *[tex \LARGE \frac{5}{3w} = -10] then cross-multiplying, -30w = 5, w = -1/6.
