Final answer:

To solve the equation 6f + 4h = 100 for h, subtract 6f from both sides of the equation, then divide both sides by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 6f + 4h = 100 for h, we need to isolate h by moving terms around.

  1. Start by subtracting 6f from both sides of the equation.
  2. This gives us 4h = 100 - 6f.
  3. Next, divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for h.
  4. Therefore, the equation is h = (100 - 6f) / 4.
