multiply both sides by 10, so as to remove the fractions. Thus you end up with 5q - 60=2q. Subtracting 2q from both sides reveals 3q-60=0 -> 3q=60. Thus q = 20

10 (1/2q - 6) = 10 (1/5q)
5q - 60 = 2q
3q - 60 = 0
3q = 60
q = 20

1/2q - 6 = 1/5q
- 6 = 1/5q - 1/2q
- 6 = 2/10q - 5/10q
- 6 = -3/10q
-60 = -3q
180 = q

Assuming:-
(1/2)q - 6 = (1/5)q
5q - 60 = 2q
3q = 60
q = 20
