The equation is .

According to division property of equality:

For any number a, b and c, If a = b then 

                    (Divide each side by 8)

                        (Cancel common terms)

t = 9                                       (Divide: )

Verify:

To check the solution, substitute t = 9 in original equation.    

  72 = 72                         (Multiply: )

Compare the values, the equation is true. The solution is t = 9.

The value of t = 9.
