3/8f+1/2=6(1/6f-3)
We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
3/8f+1/2=6(1/6f-3)
Reorder the terms in parentheses
/8f + 0.5=+(/6f-18)
Remove unnecessary parentheses
+/8f + 0.5=+/6f-18
We move all terms containing f to the left and all other terms to the right.
+8f-6f=-18-0.5
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
+2f=-18.5
We divide both sides of the equation by 2 to get f.
f=-9.25
