Answer:
w = 9 7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
w + 4 1/4 = 13 19/20
Subtract 4 1/4 from each side
w = 13 19/20 - 4 1/4
Get a common denominator of 20
w = 13 19/ 20 - 4 1/4*5/5
w = 13 19/ 20 - 4 5/20
w = 9 14/20
We can simplify
Rewrite the fractions to have the same denominator:
1/4 can be rewritten as 5/20
now you have w + 4 5/20 = 13 19/20
Solve for w by subtracting 4 5/20 from both sides:
W = 9 14/20 which can be rewritten as 9 7/10
answer: 9 7/10
