Solve 6c-12=4:8

$$6 c - 12 = 4 : 8$$

Solve for c

$$c = \frac{25}{12} = 2\frac{1}{12} \approx 2.083333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$6c-12=\frac{1}{2}$$

Add 12 to both sides.

$$6c=\frac{1}{2}+12$$

Convert 12 to fraction \frac{24}{2}.

$$6c=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{24}{2}$$

Since \frac{1}{2} and \frac{24}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$6c=\frac{1+24}{2}$$

Add 1 and 24 to get 25.

$$6c=\frac{25}{2}$$

Divide both sides by 6.

$$c=\frac{\frac{25}{2}}{6}$$

Express \frac{\frac{25}{2}}{6} as a single fraction.

$$c=\frac{25}{2\times 6}$$

Multiply 2 and 6 to get 12.

$$c=\frac{25}{12}$$
