Solve for q 4q-5+39=90

$4 q - 5 + 39 = 90$

Step 1

Add $- 5$ and $39$ .

$4 q + 34 = 90$

Step 2

Move all terms not containing $q$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $34$ from both sides of the equation.

$4 q = 90 - 34$

Subtract $34$ from $90$ .

$4 q = 56$

Step 3

Divide each term in $4 q = 56$ by $4$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $4 q = 56$ by $4$ .

$\frac{4 q}{4} = \frac{56}{4}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{4 q}{4} = \frac{56}{4}$

Divide $q$ by $1$ .

$q = \frac{56}{4}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $56$ by $4$ .

$q = 14$
