$w - (- \frac{1}{3}) = 2.05$

Step 1

Subtract $\frac{1}{3}$ from both sides of the equation.

$w = 2.05 - \frac{1}{3}$

Step 2

To write $2.05$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{3}{3}$ .

$w = 2.05 \cdot \frac{3}{3} - \frac{1}{3}$

Step 3

Combine $2.05$ and $\frac{3}{3}$ .

$w = \frac{2.05 \cdot 3}{3} - \frac{1}{3}$

Step 4

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$w = \frac{2.05 \cdot 3 - 1}{3}$

Step 5

Simplify the numerator.
