16 = d - 12 / 14 <br> what is the answer?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

16=d-12/14

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

16=d-12/14

Simplifying:

16=d-0.857142857143

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

-1d=-0.857142857143-16

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

-1d=-16.8571428571

We divide both sides of the equation by -01 to get d.  

d=16.8571428571
