Flip the equation for easier solving.


a/4 + 2 = 6


Subtract 2 from both sides because of the +2.

a/4 = 4

Now multiply by 4 to reverse the division.

4 x 4 = 16

a = 16

4 =
(a)/(4) + 2 Subtract 2 from both sides
4 =
(a)/(4) Multiply both sides by 4
16 = a Switch the sides to make it easier to read
a = 16
