Solve for d d=1.6+5d

$d = 1.6 + 5 d$

Step 1

Move all terms containing $d$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $5 d$ from both sides of the equation.

$d - 5 d = 1.6$

Subtract $5 d$ from $d$ .

$- 4 d = 1.6$

Step 2

Divide each term in $- 4 d = 1.6$ by $- 4$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 4 d = 1.6$ by $- 4$ .

$\frac{- 4 d}{- 4} = \frac{1.6}{- 4}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 4 d}{- 4} = \frac{1.6}{- 4}$

Divide $d$ by $1$ .

$d = \frac{1.6}{- 4}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $1.6$ by $- 4$ .

$d = - 0.4$
