Identify Equation: Identify the equation to solve for u.The given equation is 10=8u. We need to find the value of u.
Multiply by 8: Multiply both sides of the equation by 8 to isolate u. To get u by itself, we multiply both sides of the equation by 8, which is the denominator of the fraction on the right side of the equation. This gives us 8×10=u.
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication on the left side of the equation.Multiplying 8 by 10 gives us 80, so the equation now reads 80=u.
Write Final Answer: Write the final answer.Since 80=u, we have found the value of u. Therefore, u=80.
