Final Answer:
x = -6

Steps/Reasons/Explanation:

Question: What is
(1)/(3) (x + 15) = 3?

Step 1: Simplify
(1)/(3)(x + 15) to
(x+15)/(3).


(x + 15)/(3) = 3

Step 2: Multiply both sides by
3.


x + 15 = 3 ×
3

Step 3: Simplify
3 ×
3 to
9.


x + 15 = 9

Step 4: Subtract
15 from both sides.


x = 9 - 15

Step 5: Simplify
9 - 15 to
-6.


x = -6
