9 x + 6 - 4x = 8

9 x - 4 x = 8 - 6

5 x = 2 Divide both sides with 5

x = 2 / 5
* Multiply 2 with 8 to get rid of the 2.

9x + 6 - 4x = 16
5x + 6 = 16
- 6 = -6

5x = 10

x = 2
If it is the whole entire top over 2 then its different.

-> Multiply by 1/2, which will cancel out the denominator. Then it will leave you with:

9x + 6 - 4x = 8
5x + 6 = 8
5x = 2
x = 2/5
