12-3/4 (d+16) = -5

12-3/4d-12 = -5 Apply the Distributive Property.

12-3/4d=12 = -5 Simplify.

-3/4d = -5 Combine like terms.

-4/3x-3/4d = -4x-5 Multiply each side by −4/3.

d =20/3 Simplify.

d =6 2/3 Express d as a mixed number.

therefore the correct answer would be d= 6 2/3

if you could please mark me brainialist that would be so amazing! :3
