Answer:

f=1

Explanation:

To solve for f, we need to get f by itself. To do this, we need to move all the numbers to one side of the equation, and all the variables to the other

-f+2+4f=8-3f

Combine like terms

(-f+4f) +2=8-3f

3f+2=8-3f

Add 3f to both sides

3f+3f+2=8-3f+3f

6f+2=8

Subtract 2 from both sides

6f+2-2=8-2

6f=6

Now all the numbers are one sides, and the variables are on the other. f is still not completely by itself, it is still being multiplied by 6. To reverse this, divide both sides by 5

6f/6= 6/6

f=1
