Answer:

t = 1/9

Explanation:

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

-3/2 (t) + 1/3 = 2/4

3t/2+ 1/3 = 2/4

Find common denominator

3 x 3t/6 + 2/6 = 2/4

Combine fractions with common denominator

3 x 3t/6 + 2/6 = 2/4

3x3t + 2

/ 6= 2/4

Multiply the numbers

9t+2

/6 = 2/4

Divide the numbers

9t+2 divided by 6 is 1/2

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

6 x 9t+2 divided by 6 = 6 x 1/2

Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator

9t+2=3

Subtract 2 from both sides

9t+2-2=3-2

Simplify

9t=1

Divide both sides by the same factor

9t/9+=1/9

Simplify

t= 1/9
