Rearrange w = 3 (2a+b) - 4 to make a the subject

a = - 1/2b + 1/6w + 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

w = 3 (2a+b) - 4

Add 4 on both sides.

w + 4 = 3 (2a+b)

Divide 3 into both sides.

w/3 + 4/3 = 2a+b

Subtract b on both sides.

w/3 + 4/3 - b = 2a

Divide 2 into both parts.

w/3/2 + 4/3/2 - b/2 = a

a = w/6 + 4/6 - b/2

a = 1/6w + 2/3 - 1/2b

a = (w-3b+4) / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

w = 3 (2a+b) - 4

w=6a+3b-4

6a = w-3b+4

a = (w-3b+4) / 6
