I can solve equations involving decimals.
3-8 Solving Decimal Equations
You can solve equations with decimals
using inverse operations just as you
solved equations with whole numbers.
$45.20 + m = $69.95
–$45.20
–$45.20
m = $24.75
3-8 Solving Decimal Equations
Remember!
Use inverse operations to get the variable
alone on one side of the equation.

Additional Example 1A: Solving One-Step
Equations with Decimals
Solve the equation. Check your answer.
k – 6.2 = 9.5
k – 6.2 = 9.5
+ 6.2 + 6.2
k = 15.7
Check
k – 6.2 = 9.5
?
15.7 – 6.2 = 9.5
?
9.5 = 9.5 
6.2 is subtracted from k.
Add 6.2 to both sides to
undo the subtraction.
Substitute 15.7 for k in
the equation.
15.7 is the solution.

Solve the equation. Check your answer.
n – 3.7 = 8.6
n – 3.7 = 8.6
+ 3.7 + 3.7
n = 12.3
Check
n – 3.7 = 8.6
?
12.3 – 3.7 = 8.6
?
8.6 = 8.6 
3.7 is subtracted from n.
Add 3.7 to both sides to
undo the subtraction.
Substitute 12.3 for n in
the equation.
12.3 is the solution.

3-8 Solving Decimal Equations
Additional Example 2A: Measurement Application
The area of Emily’s floor is 33.75 m2. If its
length is 4.5 meters, what is its width?
area = length · width
33.75 = 4.5 · w
33.75 = 4.5w
Write the equation for the problem.
Let w be the width of the room.
33.75 = 4.5w
4.5
4.5
7.5 = w
Divide both sides by 4.5 to
undo the multiplication.
The width of Emily’s floor is 7.5 meters.

Additional Example 2B: Measurement Application
If carpet costs $23 per square meter, what
is the total cost to carpet the floor?
total cost = area · cost of carpet per square meter
C = 33.75 · 23 Let C be the total cost. Write the
equation for the problem.
C = 776.25
Multiply.
The cost of carpeting the floor is $776.25.

Check It Out: Example 2A
The area of Yvonne’s bedroom is 181.25 ft2. If
its length is 12.5 feet, what is its width?
area = length · width
181.25 = 12.5 · w
181.25 = 12.5w
Write the equation for the problem.
Let w be the width of the room.
181.25 = 12.5w
12.5
12.5
14.5 = w
Divide both sides by 12.5 to
undo the multiplication.
The width of Yvonne’s bedroom is 14.5 feet.

Check It Out: Example 2B
If carpet costs $4 per square foot, what is
the total cost to carpet the bedroom?
total cost = area · cost of carpet per square foot
C = 181.25 · 4 Let C be the total cost. Write the
equation for the problem.
C = 725
Multiply.
The cost of carpeting the bedroom is $725.
