a)7

In order to solve this you go backwards.

start by canceling out the 3 by adding 3 to both sides of the equation:

4t-3=25

+3 +3

4t=28

To find the value of T now you need to make it into a single digit. To do this you need to cancel out the 4 by dividing both sides of the equation by 4.

4t=28

÷4 ÷4

t=7
