Solve a=3(g-2k)

$$a = 3 ( g - 2 k )$$

Solve for g

$$g=\frac{a+6k}{3}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by g-2k.

$$a=3g-6k$$

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

$$3g-6k=a$$

Add 6k to both sides.

$$3g=a+6k$$

Divide both sides by 3.

$$\frac{3g}{3}=\frac{a+6k}{3}$$

Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.

$$g=\frac{a+6k}{3}$$

Divide a+6k by 3.

$$g=\frac{a}{3}+2k$$

Solve for a

$$a=3\left(g-2k\right)$$

Solution Steps

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by g-2k.

$$a=3g-6k$$
