3(x + 6) = 24 - Vidyadip

Question

$3(x + 6) = 24$

✓

Answer

$3(x + 6) = 24$
Dividing both sides by $3$, we get $\frac{3(\text{x}+6)}{3}=\frac{24}{3}$ $(x + 6) = 8$
Subtracting $6$ from both sides, we get $x + 6 - 6 = 8 - 6 x = 2$
Verification: Substituting $x = 2$ in $L.H.S.$,
we get $L.H.S. = 3(x + 6) = 3(2 + 6) = 24$, and $R.H.S. = 24$ $L.H.S. = R.H.S$. Hence, verified.
