$2.8$ $2.8$ $m$ $m$ / $s^{2}$ $s^2$

Explanation:

Since $F = m a$ $F=ma$ ,

where:
$F =$ $F =$ force, in terms of Newton (N)
$m =$ $m =$ mass, in terms of Kilograms (Kg)
$a =$ $a =$ acceleration, in terms of meters per second squared $(m$ $(m$ / $s^{2})$ $s^2)$

the given is:
$m = 15 k g$ $m = 15kg$
$F = 42 N$ $F = 42N$
$a = ?$ $a = ?$

using algebraic technique to find the value of $a$ $a$ ,

$F = m a$ $F = ma$

$a = \frac{F}{m}$ $a = F/m$

solving the problem:

$a = \frac{42 N}{15 k g}$ $a = (42N)/(15kg)$

$a = 2.8$ $a = 2.8$ $m$ $m$ / $s^{2}$ $s^2$
