The value of g is 3 and it is correct when checked by substituting g=3 into the equation.

Given:

4.1g + 6 = 2.1g + 12

collect like terms

4.1g - 2.1g = 12 - 6

2g = 6

divide both sides by 2

g = 6 / 2

g = 3

Check:

4.1g + 6 = 2.1g + 12

4.1(3) + 6 = 2.1(3) + 12

12.3 + 6 = 6.3 + 12

18.3 = 18.3

Therefore,

The value of g is 3 and it is correct when checked by substituting g=3 into the equation.
