2=4a-\frac{29}{2}x
Reduce the fraction \frac{87}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
4a-\frac{29}{2}x=2
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-\frac{29}{2}x=2-4a
Subtract 4a from both sides.
\frac{-\frac{29}{2}x}{-\frac{29}{2}}=\frac{2-4a}{-\frac{29}{2}}
Divide both sides of the equation by -\frac{29}{2}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{2-4a}{-\frac{29}{2}}
Dividing by -\frac{29}{2} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{29}{2}.
x=\frac{8a-4}{29}
Divide 2-4a by -\frac{29}{2} by multiplying 2-4a by the reciprocal of -\frac{29}{2}.
