Question

Solve for x what is 4(3x-1)=24

Answer 1

4(3x - 1) = 24

First, divide both sides by 4. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 1 = $\frac{24}{4}$ .
Second, simplify $\frac{24}{4}$ to 6. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 1 = 6.
Third, add 1 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 3x = 6 + 1.
Fourth, simplify 6 + 1 to 7. / Your problem should look like: 3x = 7.
Fifth, divide both sides by 3. / Your problem should look like: x = $\frac{7}{3}$ which is your answer.
