Question

6 = a/4 + 2

What’s the answer for the variable a?

Answer 1

Answer: a=16

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides. 2-2=0 6-2=4

Step 3: Now we have a/4=4. Multiply both sides by 4.

Step 4: 4 times 4 equals 16.

a=16

To check ur answer, plug it into the equation. 16/4+2=6

Let's check if it's right.

16/4=4 4+2=6 6=6 This is correct

Answer 2

a = 16

Explanation:

6 = a/4 + 2

4 = a/4 Subtract 2 from both sides

16 = a Multiply 4 to both sides
