How would you solve 7x-1/2 (8x+2)=6

Your answer would be 4! Or if you want it in fraction form then it would be 7/3!

7x-1/2(8x+2)=6

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

7x-1/2(8x+2)=6

Simplifying:

7x-0.5*(8x+2)=6

Reorder the terms in parentheses

7x+(-4x-2)=6

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+7x-4x-2=+6

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+7x-4x=+6+2

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+3x=+8

We divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get x.  

x=7/3

In order to clear the fraction you would times it by 2 which will cancel out the 1/2 which leaves you with 7x-(4x+1)=6 you would multiply everything in the parenthesis due to a negative 1 being in front of it which gives you 7x-4x-1=6 from their combines likes terms which is 3x-1=6 you would move the constant to the right and change the signing leaving you with 3x=7. then you would divide by 3 on each side and answer should be x= 3/7
