Solve 6(3a-4)=3(4a-3)

Evaluate

6 (3 a - 4) = 3 (4 a - 3)

Calculate

More Steps

18 a - 24 = 3 (4 a - 3)

Calculate

More Steps

18 a - 24 = 12 a - 9

Move the expression to the left side

18 a - 24 - (12 a - 9) = 0

Calculate

More Steps

6 a - 15 = 0

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

6 a = 0 + 15

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

6 a = 15

Divide both sides

\frac{6 a}{6} = \frac{15}{6}

Divide the numbers

a = \frac{15}{6}

Solution

a = \frac{5}{2}

Alternative Form

a = 2.5
