Question

3(4−7)=27
How do I solve this

Answer 1

x = 4

Explanation:

3(4x - 7) = 27

distribute the 3

(3 * 4x) + (3 * -7) = 27

12x + (3 * -7) = 27

12x - 21 = 27

add 21 to both sides of the equations

12x - 21 + 21 = 27 + 21

12x = 27 + 21

12x = 48

divide both sides by 12

12x/12 = 48/12

x = 48/12

x = 4/1

x = 4
