Question

Help help help solve for x 2x + 3 /12 = 2x/8

Answer 1

2x + 3 /12 = 2x/8
⇒ 48x/24 + 6/24 = 6x/24
⇒ (48x+ 6)/24= 6x/24
⇒ 48x+ 6 = 6x
⇒ 48x- 6x= -6
⇒ 42x= -6
⇒ x= -6/42
⇒ x= -1/7

x=-1/7~

Answer 2

You can say : 3/12 = 2x/8 - 2x ⇒ ( 1/4 = 2x/8 - 2x ) *8 ⇒ 2 = 2x - 16x ⇒ 2 = -14x 
so x = 2/-14 = -1/7 the answer is : x = -1/7 :))
i hope this be helpful
