Question
Simplify and solve the linear equation $0.25(4f – 3) = 0.05 (10f – 9).$

Answer

$0.25(4f – 3) = 0.05 (10f – 9)$
$\therefore f – 0.75 = 0.5f – 0.45$
$\therefore f – 0.5f = 0.45 + 0.75 ... [$Transposing $0.5f$ to $L.H.S.$ and $– 0.75$ to $R.H.S.]$
$\therefore 0.5f = 0.30$
$\therefore f = \frac{{0.30}}{{0.5}} ... [$Dividing both sides by $ 0.5]$
$\therefore f = 0.6$ this is the required solution.
