6q-%28q-3%29=2q%2B3%28q%2B1%29 Start with the given equation.


6q%2Bq=2q%2B3q%2B3 Distribute.


7q=2q%2B3q%2B3 Combine like terms on the left side.


7q=5q%2B3 Combine like terms on the right side.


7q-5q=3 Subtract 5q from both sides.


2q=3 Combine like terms on the left side.


q=%283%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate q.
