DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at 8%2An-10=highlight_red%28+10+%29-8%2An.
Moved 10 to the right of expression
It becomes 8%2An-10=-8%2An%2Bhighlight_green%28+10+%29.
Look at 8%2An-10=highlight_red%28+-8%2An%2B10+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+8%2An+%29,highlight_green%28+-10+%29
It becomes 8%2An-10%2Bhighlight_green%28+8%2An+%29-highlight_green%28+10+%29=0.
Look at 8%2An-highlight_red%28+10+%29%2B8%2An-highlight_red%28+10+%29=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes 8%2An%2Bhighlight_green%28+-20+%29%2B8%2An=0.
Look at 8%2An%2Bhighlight_red%28+-20+%29%2B8%2An=0.
Moved -20 to the right of expression
It becomes 8%2An%2B8%2An%2Bhighlight_green%28+-20+%29=0.
Look at 8%2An%2B8%2An%2Bhighlight_red%28+-20+%29=0.
Removed extra sign in front of -20
It becomes 8%2An%2B8%2An-highlight_green%28+20+%29=0.
