1. **State the problem:** Solve the linear equation $$\frac{c}{2} - 4 = 6$$ for $c$. 2. **Write the formula and rules:** To solve for $c$, isolate $c$ on one side by undoing addition/subtraction and multiplication/division. 3. **Add 4 to both sides:** $$\frac{c}{2} - 4 + 4 = 6 + 4$$ $$\frac{c}{2} = 10$$ 4. **Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the denominator:** $$2 \times \frac{c}{2} = 2 \times 10$$ $$\cancel{2} \times \frac{c}{\cancel{2}} = 20$$ 5. **Simplify:** $$c = 20$$ **Final answer:** $c = 20$
