<PRE><B>Question 216671</B>
Solve for u

{{{4u-w=u+6w}}}


Step 1.  Add w-u to both sides of the equation to put u terms on the left side and w terms on the right.


{{{4u-w=u+6w}}} (given)


{{{4u-w+w-u=u+6w+w-u}}}


{{{3u=7w}}}


Step 2.  Divide by 3 to both sides to solve for u


{{{3u/3=7w/3}}}


{{{u=7w/3}}}


Step 3.  ANSWER:  {{{u=7w/3}}}


I hope the above steps were helpful.
