We first have to distribute the outside 2. That means we have to multiply the numbers in the parentheses by the outside 2. 2*2y is 4y and 2*16 is 32. So now we have 4y-32=0 Now we have to combine like terms, basically. So we do inverse operation, the opposite operation. So let's add 32 to the 0. That's obviously 32. So 4y=32. We do inverse operation again. So we divide 32/4. We get 8. And 8 is our answer. 8=y
It's harder to explain but think logically about it or get or get a piece of paper. Then roll it up in as many different ways that u can think of into a cylinder. If u unroll it then I I'll always be a rectangle
