Answer:

The British wanted to control South Africa because it was one of the trade routes to India. However, when gold and diamonds were discovered in the 1860s-1880s their interest in the region increased. This brought them into conflict with the Boers. ... Tensions between Boers and British led to the Boer War of 1899-1902.

first, you divide 15 on both sides, then, you isolate x by dividing by 12 on both sides. the answer is 16.2
