Question

4(g+2 )+8g=56 show work

Answer 1

4(g+2)+8g=56
4g+8+8g=56
12g+8=56
12g-8=56-8
12g= 48
12g/12=48/12
g=4

Steps
1. Distribute by multiply 4 times g and 4 time 2
2.do the opposite of either add or subtraction in this case is opposite of add which is subtract
3.divide both side by the coefficient where it has the letter for example in this case is 12g so you divide 12g/12=12/48
Which gives you the answer 4

Answer 2

4g+8+8g=56
12g+8=56
12g+-8=-8
12g=48
DIVIDE 12 TO BOTH 
g=4
