4%2B3t=31%2B1%2Bt Start with the given equation.


4%2B3t=32%2Bt Combine like terms on the right side.


3t=32%2Bt-4 Subtract 4 from both sides.


3t-t=32-4 Subtract t from both sides.


2t=32-4 Combine like terms on the left side.


2t=28 Combine like terms on the right side.


t=%2828%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate t.


t=14 Reduce.
