Question

Solve: 1/3(−6q+4)=−1/12(4q+4)

Answer 1

q=1

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

Step 2: Add 1/3q to both sides.

Step 3: Subtract 4/3 from both sides.

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 3/(-5).

Answer 2

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction

13(−6+4)=−112(4+4)

13(−6q+4)=−112(4q+4)\frac{1}{3}(-6q+4)=\frac{-1}{12}(4q+4)31​(−6q+4)=12−1​(4q+4)

1(−6+4)3=−112(4+4)

1(−6q+4)3=−112(4q+4)\frac{1(-6q+4)}{3}=\frac{-1}{12}(4q+4)31(−6q+4)​=12−1​(4q+4)
