6 - 3w = 2 - 4w + w

1 answer

To solve the equation, we first combine like terms on the right side of the equation:

6 - 3w = 2 - 4w + w

Rewriting the equation:

6 - 3w = 2 - 3w

Next, we want to isolate the variable w. We can do this by subtracting 6 from both sides:

-3w = -4

Finally, we can solve for w by dividing both sides by -3:

w = -4 / -3

Simplifying the fraction:

w = 4/3
