See a solution process below:

Step 1) Subtract #color(red)(6.1)# from each side of the equation to isolate the #v# term while keeping the equation balanced:

#-13.1 - color(red)(6.1) = v/6 + 6.1 - color(red)(6.1)#

#-19.2 = v/6 + 0#

#-19.2 = v/6#

Step 2) Multiply each side of the equation by #color(red)(6)# to solve for #v# while keeping the equation balanced:

#color(red)(6) xx -19.2 = color(red)(6) xx v/6#

#-115.2 = cancel(color(red)(6)) xx v/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(6)))#

#-115.2 = v#

#v = -115.2#
