1/2r -3= 3 (4-3/2r) is to be solved for r.


I'll begin by making the assumptions that by 1/2r you actually meant (1/2)r and that by 3/2r you actually meant (3/2)r. When in doubt, please use parentheses to make your meaning clear.


Thus, 1/2r -3= 3 (4-3/2r) becomes (1/2)r -3= 3 (4-(3/2)r ) .

Simplify this by multiplying all 3 terms by 2. Doing this will eliminate the fractions:


r -6 = 3 (4*2-(3)r ) or r - 6 = 24 - 9r


Now expand the right side, using the distributive property of

r - 3 = 24 - 9r


Regrouping so as to combine like terms:


10r = 30


Solving for r: r = 30/10 = 3


The value of r that satisfies this equation is 3
