To solve the equation four r equals two-thirds, you should: divide both sides by 4. divide both sides by two-thirds. subtract four r from both sides. subtract two-thirds from both sides.

@gh

OpenStudy (daniel.ohearn1):

4r=(2/3)

OpenStudy (daniel.ohearn1):

Well what are you solving for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for?

OpenStudy (daniel.ohearn1):

Yeah you want to solve for r is that true?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How can you isolate r, then? You have 4r, and you want just r. What do you do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can either divide both sides by 4 or you can multiply both sides by 1/4. They're the same thing, but certain people prefer to think of it differently. It's up to you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And if we were to carry out with the actual process: \[\huge \frac{1}{\cancel{4}} \cdot \cancel{4}r=\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{4}\]

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

You have 4r And you need r So divide it by 4 But remember you have to divide both side by 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it A B c Or d
