6+\left(j-5\right)\times 2=4
Variable j cannot be equal to 5 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by j-5.
6+2j-10=4
Use the distributive property to multiply j-5 by 2.
-4+2j=4
Subtract 10 from 6 to get -4.
2j=4+4
Add 4 to both sides.
2j=8
Add 4 and 4 to get 8.
j=\frac{8}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
j=4
Divide 8 by 2 to get 4.
