1. 26= (30 - 24 F)

Subtract 30 on both sides

-4 = -24 F

Divide -24 on both sides

F= .166667

Equation: 26=6(5−4f)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

26=6(5−4f)

26=(6)(5)+(6)(−4f)(Distribute)

26=30+−24f

26=−24f+30

Step 2)Flip the equation.

−24f+30=26

Step 3)Subtract 30 from both sides.

−24f+30−30=26−30

−24f=−4

Step 4) Divide both sides by -24.

-24/-24f=-4/-24

f=1/6
