Answer:

[tex]a = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's convert everything to sixths to make it easier to work with.

[tex]\frac{4}{6}a - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{2}{6}[/tex]

Add 1/6 to both sides:

[tex]\frac{4}{6}a = \frac{3}{6}[/tex].

Dividing both sides by 4/6:

[tex]a = \frac{3}{6} \div \frac{4}{6}\\\\a = \frac{3}{6} \cdot \frac{6}{4}\\\\a = \frac{18}{24}\\\\a = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Hope this helped!
