Well, I asked a scientist, and here was the answer I got. I was using two sets of Galilean transformation equations to represent the times of two clock with different rates in the following manner.
x'=x-vt
y'=y
z'=z
t'=t

x = x' - v'n'
y=y'
z=z'
n=n'

No, said the scientists, you are not allowed to do that. t' has to be the time of the clock in S'.
OK, I said, let t' be the time of the clock in S'. The two sets of equations we have now are:
x'=x-vt
y'=y
z'=z
?=t

x = x' - v't'
y'=y
z'=z
??=t'

The question marks represent the time coordinates missing because we had to use t' as the time of the clock in S'. So now we say that the speed of light is c=186,000
miles per second in both sets of equations, so we obtain, x=ct, x'=ct', which is OK with scientists because it is what Einstein did.
ct'=ct-vt
t' = t-vt/c
But this only considers photons directed in the +x direction. Photons directed in the -x direction have a velocity of -c, not c.
-ct' = -ct -vt
t'=t -vt/(-c)
So to accommodate all photons,
t'=t-vx/c^2
Wonderful, said the scientists. You have done what Lorentz did to obtain the numerator of his equation. Well, then we can say from this,
x'=x-vt
y'=y
z'=z
t'+vx/c^2 =t

x = x' - v't'
y = y'
z = z'
t-vx/c^2 = t'
So where did the gamma = 1/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2) come from? A scientist showed me that also. I will look it back up and post it.

Whoops. Doesn’t follow.
