Solve for the variable c in this equation: a (c + b) = d Options: A. C = d-ab/a B. C = d+ab/a C. C=ab-d/a D. C=d-ab/b

a (c+b) = d

First, let's apply the Distributive Property

ac + ab = d

Now, subtract both sides by ab

ac + ab - ab = d - ab

ac = d - ab

Divide both sides by a to isolate the c on the left side

ac/a = (d - ab) / a

c = (d - ab) / a

Due to poor math text formatting, it is hard to determine the answer, but I would assume it's A.
