Answer (3)

8 7 ​ h − 8 5 ​ = 2 ∣ + 8 5 ​ 8 7 ​ h = 2 + 8 5 ​ 8 7 h ​ = 8 16 ​ + 8 5 ​ 8 7 h ​ = 8 21 ​ / ∗ 8 7 h = 21 / : 7 h = 7 21 ​ h = 3

8 7 ​ h − 8 5 ​ = 2
8 ( 8 7 ​ h − 8 5 ​ ) = 8 ( 2 )
7 h − 5 = 16
7 7 h ​ = 7 21 ​
h = 3

To solve the equation 8 7 ​ h − 8 5 ​ = 2 , we isolate h to find that h = 3 . We verify the solution by substituting it back into the original equation, confirming that both sides are equal. Therefore, the solution is correct.
