9 2 | − | 2 | ( | 3 | − | t | ) | − | 1 2 | = | 7 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 4 | − | 2 | ( | 3 | − | t | ) |
| 4 | − | 2 | ( | 3 | − | t | ) | = | 7 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | 4 | − | 2 | × | 3 | + | 2 | t |
| = | 4 | − | 6 | + | 2 | t |
| = | - | 2 | + | 2 | t |
| - | 2 | + | 2 | t | = | 7 2 |
| 2 | t | = | 7 2 | + | 2 |
| 2 | t | = | 11 2 |
| t | = | 11 2 | ÷ | 2 |
| = | 11 2 | × | 1 2 |
| t | = | 11 4 |
| t | = | 2.75 |
