q=1
↓Steps Explained:↓
Solve for q
7q + 6 = 11q + 2
Group variables
Group our variables 7q and 11q
subtract 11q from both sides
7q + 6 - 11q = 11q + 2 - 11q
Cancel 11q on the right side:
-4q + 6 = 2
Divide each side by 7
| 7q | |
| 7 |
| = |
| 6 |
| 7 |
Group constants
Group our constants 6 and 2.
subtract 6 from both sides
-4q + 6 - 6 = 2 - 6
Cancel 6 on the left side:
-4q = -4
Divide each side of the equation by -4
| -4q | |
| -4 |
| = |
| -4 |
| -4 |
q = 1
