In very simple terms, you must collect all variables on one side of the equation, and all numbers on the other side, to solve for the variable A.

This is done by doing opposite functions on the numbers. For example, if you have



you must subtract 2 from both sides of the equation like this:







So, your problem is this (we want the A's on one side, and the numbers on the other):



add 57A to both sides

add 93 to both sides

divide both sides by 71



I hope this helps!
