Equation: 855 ÷ 15 - k + 32 × 5 = 1152 ÷ 16 × 111 ÷ 37
Formula Used:
Follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS): Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication and Division (left to right), Addition and Subtraction (left to right)
Calculation:
First, simplify both sides of the equation:
Left side:
855 ÷ 15 - k + 32 × 5
⇒ 57 - k + 160
⇒ 217 - k
Right side:
1152 ÷ 16 × 111 ÷ 37
⇒ 72 × 3
⇒ 216
Now, equate both sides:
217 - k = 216
Solve for k:
⇒ 217 - 216 = k
⇒ k = 1
The value of k is 1.
