Solve 8d-4/6=12

$$8 d - 4 / 6 = 12$$

Solve for d

$$d = \frac{19}{12} = 1\frac{7}{12} \approx 1.583333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$8d-\frac{2}{3}=12$$

Add \frac{2}{3} to both sides.

$$8d=12+\frac{2}{3}$$

Convert 12 to fraction \frac{36}{3}.

$$8d=\frac{36}{3}+\frac{2}{3}$$

Since \frac{36}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$8d=\frac{36+2}{3}$$

Add 36 and 2 to get 38.

$$8d=\frac{38}{3}$$

Divide both sides by 8.

$$d=\frac{\frac{38}{3}}{8}$$

Express \frac{\frac{38}{3}}{8} as a single fraction.

$$d=\frac{38}{3\times 8}$$

Multiply 3 and 8 to get 24.

$$d=\frac{38}{24}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{38}{24} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$d=\frac{19}{12}$$
