Is it to find the value of a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. -1/10 b. 1 1/10 c. 9/16 d.1/10

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

a - 1/2 = 3/5 ---- add 1/2 to both sides a = 3/5 + 1/2 -- common denominator is 10 a = 6/10 + 5/10 a = 11/10 or 1 1/10 or this way.. a - 1/2 = 3/5 --- multiply everything by common denominator(10) to get rid of the fractions. 10a - 5 = 6 -- add 5 to both sides 10a = 11 -- divide by 10 a = 11/10 or 1 1/10
