Question

3(x + 4) = 27 what is x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple equation if you look at it right and don't get scared by the "x."

All we need to do is figure out what times 3 = 27. We can do this easily by diving 27 by 3.

27 ÷ 3 = 9

Since our "equation" is 3(x + 4) = 27 we know whatever is in the parenthesis () has to equal to 9. We already get 4 so:

5 + 4 = 9.

3 times 9 = 27.

5 is your answer.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
