This is a step by step process to solve an equation

to do this, we'll just follow the cards accordingly

the equation given

12c + 2d = 48g

step 1

write the original equation = 12c + 2d = 48g

step 2

use subtraction property of equality to solve for d

to do this, we need to take 12c to the right hand side of the equation

simply subtract 12c from both sides of the equation

12c + 2d - 12c = 48g - 12c

step 3

write the original equation

to do this, just eliminate 12c from left hand side and you'd be left with 2d = 48g - 12c

step 4

use division property of equality to solve for d

this can be done by simply dividing both sides by 2

2d/2 = (48g - 12c)/2


\begin{gathered} (2d)/(2)=(48g-12c)/(2) \\ d=(48g)/(2)-(12c)/(2) \\ d=24g-6c \end{gathered}
