Solve 5/4=-4c+1/4

$$\frac { 5 } { 4 } = - 4 c + \frac { 1 } { 4 }$$

Solve for c

$$c=-\frac{1}{4}=-0.25$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$-4c+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}$$

Subtract \frac{1}{4} from both sides.

$$-4c=\frac{5}{4}-\frac{1}{4}$$

Since \frac{5}{4} and \frac{1}{4} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$-4c=\frac{5-1}{4}$$

Subtract 1 from 5 to get 4.

$$-4c=\frac{4}{4}$$

Divide 4 by 4 to get 1.

$$-4c=1$$

Divide both sides by -4.

$$c=\frac{1}{-4}$$

Fraction \frac{1}{-4} can be rewritten as -\frac{1}{4} by extracting the negative sign.

$$c=-\frac{1}{4}$$
