Answer:
Subtract 5.5 from both sides
Or
Add -5.50 to both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is :
27.75n + 5.50= 144.25
To get 27.75n on one side of the equation.
We subtract 5.50 from both sides to get:
27.75n + 5.50-5.50= 144.25-5.50
This simplifies to:
27.75n= 138.75
Therefore the answer is subtract 5.50 from both sides
