Use PEMDAS to get #t=1.37#

Explanation:

To solve this problem, the best way would be to use PEMDAS.

Because our variable, #t#, is being divided by #2#, we need to multiply both sides by #2#.

#(t+3.95)/2 (*2)=2.66 (*2)#
#t=3.95=5.32#

We'd then subtract #3.95# from both sides, so #t# would be isolated.

#t=3.95-3.95=5.32-3.95#
#t=1.37#
