Question

3(x+2)=62 find the correct solution

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{56}{3}$ or $18\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First:

Divide both sides by 3 (you need to get x by itself)

$\frac{3(x+2)}{3} = \frac{62}{3}$

Second:

Subtract both sides by 2

$x+2 = \frac{63}3 -2$

And Finally just simplify

$x = \frac{56}{3}$

or you can make it into a mixed fraction which is $18\frac{2}{3}$

(just divide on the calculator)
