Answer

$d = 2\frac{6}{7}$

Work Step by Step

We start by joining like terms together to form the equation: $-14d + 76 = 36$ We now need to isolate the variable $d$ by subtracting $76$ from both sides of the equation as shown below: $-14d + 76 - 76 = 36 - 76$ Simplify to get: $-14d = - 40$ Next, we divide through by the coefficient of the variable $d$ as shown below: $\frac{-14}{-14}d = \frac{-40}{-14}$ Simplifying, we have: $d = 2\frac{6}{7}$
