Question

Solve the equation. Show your work step by step. 3x = 45

Answer 1

x = 15

Explanation:

We are given the following equation which we are to solve for x:

`3 x = 4 5`

This is one very simple equation that we need to solve for x.

For that, we will divide both sides by 3 to isolate x and make it the subject of the equation to get:

`\frac { 3 x } { 3 } = \frac { 4 5 } { 3 }`

`x = 15`

Answer 2

x=15

Explanation:

3x=45

We want to get x by itself, so we divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 45/3

x =15
