\textsf{24= 2f + 3f + f}\\\text{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}\\\\\textsf{2f + 3f + f}\\\textsf{2f + 3f = \bf 5f}\\\textsf{5f + f}\\\textsf{= \bf 6f}\\\text{New equation: \textsf{6f = 24}}\\\text{DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES}\\\mathsf{(6f)/(6)=(24)/(6)}\\\textsf{CANCEL out: }\mathsf{(6)/(6)}\textsf{ because that gives you 1}\\\textsf{KEEP: }\mathsf{(24)/(6)}\textsf{ because that helps solve for the f-value}\\\\\mathsf{(24)/(6)=\bf f}\\\\\\\mathsf{(24)/(6)=24/6=\bf 4}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Answer: \huge \bf f = 4}}}\huge\checkmark
