c*27=c*5 how to solve this kind of problem,this is algebra but i don't how to solve this, kindly help me, thanks
Hi anon, thanks for getting involved :)
2*3=3*2
and
c*27=27*c
It makes no difference what side the c is on :)
You are right c*27 cannot equal c*5 UNLESS c=0.
If c=0 then you get 0=0 which is true :)
The ONLY answer is c=0
It could be that you have got it wrong
because if c on the left is equal to the c on the right (they are both c), then you are pretty much asking if 5 is equal to 27 (not correct of course)
