#24.5#

#54 = 17 + (10t)/7 + 2#

#35 = (10t)/7#

#t = 3.5 * 7#

#t=24.5#

Start by adding the numbers on the right-hand side:

#5.4= 1.7+0.2 + (t/7)#

You get,

#5.4= 1.9 +(t/7)#

Take the #1.9# to the other side and flip the sign.

#5.4-1.9=(t/7)#

Subtract,

#3.5=(t/7)#

Since #t# is being divided by #7# in the fraction, #7# will go by multiplication,

#3.5 xx7=t#

Multiply the numbers,

#24.5=t #

OR

#t=24.5#
