Well, for method one the first step we have is distribution, then combining like terms, then property of subtraction, then division. For method two, I'm not entirely sure what they did there. I've never done math like that. Sorry I can't help you out all the way.

First, subtract 24 - 14 to get how many books he had after he sold half of his collection and bought 14 more:
24 - 14 = 10
10 = number of books after he sold half of his collection.
Now, you need to multiply 10 x 2, because you need to find the original number of comic books:
10 x 2 = 20
He originally had 20 comic books.
An equation you could use for this question is:
2(24 - 14) = x. (X = number of comic books)
Hope this helps!!
