Question

Solve for r.

–6(r − 98) = 78

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, divide both sides of the equation by -6.

-6(r-98)÷6=78÷6

This gives us r-98=-13

Then, add 98 to both sides.

r-98+98=-13+98

The answer is r=85

Answer 2

r = 85

Explanation:

→ -6 ( r - 98 ) = 78

→ r - 98 = -13

→ r = -13 + 98

→ r = 85

conclusion:

so the value of r is 85
