Larger: x
smaller: 180 - x

x + 16 = 3 (180 - x)
distribute the 3
x + 16 = 540 - 3x
subtract 16 from both sides
x = 524 - 3x
add 3x to both sides
4x = 524
divide both sides by 4
x = 131 (larger)
180 - 131 = 49 (smaller)

2 (6 x+6)= ?
12 x+ 12=
12 x= -12
x= -1
So first you take what is outside the "( )" and you multiply it with what's in the "( )" so that gave us 12 because 2*6= 12.
