Question

What would this equal and showing work x+36=4x

Answer 1

X+36=4x
-x       -x
--------------
36=3x
---   ---
 3     3
12=x

Answer 2

Your equation: $x+36=4x$

You need to get "x" by itself so minus "x" from each side because if you do one thing on one side, you have to do it on the other side too

$x-x+36=4x-x$⇒$36=3x$

Now divide 36 by 3 which is 12


Answer: x=12
