Answer:

d = 20

Explanation:

1/6*d + 2/3 = 1/4*(d - 2) do the multiplying

d/6 + 2/3 = (d-2)/4 now add fraction

d/6 + 2/3 to add these up we need to multiply 2/3 with 1/2 and it will be 4/6

d/6 + 4/6 = (d+4)/6

(d+4)/6 = (d-2)/4 cross multiply

4d + 16 = 6d - 24 add like terms

16 + 24 = 6d - 4d

40 = 2d divide both sides by 2

20 = d
