Simplifying

5c + -6d + 4c + 3d = 0

Reorder the terms:

5c + 4c + -6d + 3d = 0

Combine like terms: 5c + 4c = 9c

9c + -6d + 3d = 0

Combine like terms: -6d + 3d = -3d

9c + -3d = 0

Solving

9c + -3d = 0

Solving for variable 'c'.

Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3d' to each side of the equation.

9c + -3d + 3d = 0 + 3d

Combine like terms: -3d + 3d = 0

9c + 0 = 0 + 3d

9c = 0 + 3d

Remove the zero:

9c = 3d

Your answer: 9c=3d
