Solve 16 = 4 + 3(t + 2)

Evaluate

16 = 4 + 3 (t + 2)

Swap the sides of the equation

4 + 3 (t + 2) = 16

Move the expression to the left side

4 + 3 (t + 2) - 16 = 0

Subtract the numbers

- 12 + 3 (t + 2) = 0

Calculate

More Steps

- 6 + 3 t = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

3 t = 0 + 6

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

3 t = 6

Divide both sides

\frac{3 t}{3} = \frac{6}{3}

Divide the numbers

t = \frac{6}{3}
