$t = \frac{16}{5.4} = \frac{80}{27} = 2 . . 9 6 . 2$ $t = 16/5.4 = 80/27 = 2.dot(9)6dot(2)$

First add $2$ $2$ to both sides of the equation to get:

$5.4 t = 16$ $5.4t = 16$

Then divide both sides by $5.4$ $5.4$ to get:

$t = \frac{16}{5.4} = \frac{80}{27} = 2 . . 9 6 . 2$ $t = 16/5.4 = 80/27 = 2.dot(9)6dot(2)$

How do you solve 5.4t - 2 = 145.4t−2=145.4t - 2 = 14?
