There is no solution to that equation.
To get all the variables on one side, you would subtract 12c from both sides. that will give you
-4 = 0
Which is imposssible.

sure:
12c-4=12c
first, bring 12c onto the other side of the equal side by doing the opposite function
so, subtract 12c from both sides
then you should get
-4=0
but they're not equal, so the answer is "no solution"

sure hold on
the first thing you are gonna want to do is to get your like terms on the same side
12c - 12c = 4
0 = 4
There is no solution for this set, because the c's cancel each other out

well honestly i think its impossible
cuz the variable ( c ) has only one value whether its on the right side or left side
so no matter what it is u cant subtract four from a number and then say it equals it self

Subtract 12c from both sides.
so:
-4=0
Which is false, so there are no solutions.

How can NUMBER - 4 = NUMBER?
Error in question.
