$6.4 m / s^{2}$ $6.4m//s^2$

Force=mass times acceleration, or $F = m \cdot a$ $F=m*a$
We can rework this to:

$a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{96 N}{15 k g} = 6.4 \frac{N}{k g}$ $a=F/m=(96N)/(15kg)=6.4N/(kg)$

And since the Newton is defined as $N = \frac{k g \cdot m}{s^{2}}$ $N=(kg*m)/s^2$

This results in: $a=6.4(cancel(kg)*m)/s^2divcancel(kg)=6.4m//s^2$
