- Simplify each side of the equation
- Collect x in side and the numerical terms in the other side
- Find the value of x
∵ The equation is
- Multiply all terms of the equation by 4 to cancel the denominator
of the 2nd term in the left hand side
∵ The equation is
∴ 8x + (1 - x) = 12
∴ 8x + 1 - x = 12
- Add like terms
∴ (8x - x) + 1 = 12
∴ 7x + 1 = 12
- Subtract 1 from both sides
∴ 7x = 11
- Divide both sides by 7
∴
The solution of the equation is
