Question

3 (2x+8) = 60 x=____​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x+8)=60x

6x+24=60x

6x+24-24=60x-24 -60x

-54x=-24

-54x= -24

x= 4/9

Answer 2

X = 6

Step-by-step Explanation:

(Original problem) 3(2x+8)=60

Multiply 3 to 2x and 8: 6x+24=60

Subtract 24 on both sides of the equation: 6x+24=60
-24 -24
6x=36

Divide both sides by 6: 6x/6 = 36/6

Final result: x = 6
