Answer: 5

Explanation:

1. Distribute 4(c-3), and that will be 4c - 12 = 8

2. Add 12 to 12 and 8 and then cancel out the 12 because it will be 0 so we dont need that anymore

3. So that leaves us with 4c = 8 + 12

4. Add 8+ 12 and that will give us 20

5. Divided 20 and 4 and the answer will be 5

More simple explanation

1. 4(c-3)=8

2. 4c-12=18

3. 4c-12+12=18+12

4. 4c=18+12

5. 4c=20

6. 5
