So we have this equation 4(y-4)=8 and in order to find the value of y we need to remove the brackets first.
Multiply 4 with (y-4).
4y-16=8
Put the variables on one side and the numbers on the other side. Every variable or number that will change sides will have its sign changed from a + into a - and vice versa.
4y=8+16
4y=24
Divide both sides with 4.
4y/4=24/4
y=6
