DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at highlight_red%28+8+%29-d%2F15=3%2F45.
Moved 8 to the right of expression
It becomes -d%2F15%2Bhighlight_green%28+8+%29=3%2F45.
Look at -d%2F15%2B8=highlight_red%28+3+%29%2Fhighlight_red%28+45+%29.
Factors 3 and 45 have greatest common factor (GCF) of 3. Reducing fraction.
It becomes -d%2F15%2B8=highlight_green%28+1+%29%2Fhighlight_green%28+15+%29.
Look at -d%2F15%2B8=highlight_red%28+1%2F15+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-1%2F15+%29
It becomes -d%2F15%2B8-highlight_green%28+1%2F15+%29=0.
Look at -d%2F15%2Bhighlight_red%28+8+%29-highlight_red%28+1%2F15+%29=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes -d%2F15%2Bhighlight_green%28+119%2F15+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+-d%2F15%2B119%2F15+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+-d%2F15%2B119%2F15=0+%29 equivalent to -0.0666666666666667*d+7.93333333333333 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: d=119.
