(16)/(2)*w+4=6
Reduce the expression (16)/(2) by removing a factor of 2 from the numerator and denominator.
8*w+4=6
Multiply 8 by w to get 8w.
8w+4=6
Since 4 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides.
8w=-4+6
Add 6 to -4 to get 2.
8w=2
Divide each term in the equation by 8.
(8w)/(8)=(2)/(8)
Simplify the left-hand side of the equation by canceling the common terms.
w=(2)/(8)
Simplify the right-hand side of the equation by simplifying each term.
w=(1)/(4)
