Answer 4

Solving an equation is like unwrapping a present.
The present is the variable x.
First, you untie all the ribbons and wrapping paper to get to the x.
The ribbon is the -7/2. You get rid of it by adding 7/2 to both sides
with yields 9/2*x=9
Now, the final wrapping paper is the 9/2 bit. You want to have x alone. So to get rid of the 9/2, you multiply both sides by 2/9 ('cuz 9/2 times 2/9 = 1 and that would get rid of the 9/2) and you get x=2. :D
