Full solution

Q. Solve for jj.\newlinej52=2j - \frac{5}{2} = 2\newlinej=j = _____\_\_\_\_\_
  1. Isolate variable jj: Add 52\frac{5}{2} to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable jj.j52+52=2+52j - \frac{5}{2} + \frac{5}{2} = 2 + \frac{5}{2}
  2. Simplify equation: Simplify both sides of the equation.\newlinej=2+52j = 2 + \frac{5}{2}
  3. Combine terms: Convert the integer to a fraction with the same denominator to combine the terms. j=42+52j = \frac{4}{2} + \frac{5}{2}
  4. Add fractions: Add the fractions.\newlinej = 42+52\frac{4}{2} + \frac{5}{2}\newlinej = 92\frac{9}{2}
