Question 336990
{{{(c+1)/8=c/4}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4(c+1)=8c}}} Cross multiply.



{{{4c+4=8c}}} Distribute.



{{{4c=8c-4}}} Subtract {{{4}}} from both sides.



{{{4c-8c=-4}}} Subtract {{{8c}}} from both sides.



{{{-4c=-4}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{c=(-4)/(-4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-4}}} to isolate {{{c}}}.



{{{c=1}}} Reduce.
