G = 223
if the equation is evaluated as it is
G/5 -13 = 42
first find the common denominator by multiplying both sides by 5
because -13 can be written as -13/1 here
which gives a new equation
G - 65/5 = 210
then solve for G
G -13 = 210
G = 210 + 13
G = 223
***************************( BUT )**************************
G = -336
only if 5-13 are inside parenthesis
like this G/(5-13) = 42
subtract whats inside the parenthesis
G/-8 = 42
multiply -8 on both sides
G = 42 * -8
G = -336
*********************** OR *******************************
which is simpler

G/5-13 = 42 --->5(G/5-13) =5x42 = G-65=210=G=275
Answer is G=275

G / 5 - 13 = 42
G / 5 = 55
G = 275

first add 13 to both sides. then multiply both sides by 5.
(doesn't = 50)
