NH3 + H20 == NH4 + OH
Kb = [NH4+][OH-]/[NH3]
pKb = 4.74 ... Kb = 1.82x10-5
1.82x10-5 = (x)(x)/3.2x10-4
x2 = 5.84 x10-9
x = 7.6x10-5 = [OH-]
pOH = 4.1
pH = 14 -4.1 = 9.9

The error percent on this answer is 24%, it has to be less than 5% so you have to use the quadratic equation to get 9.83 you cant assume in this case.03/01/20
