Answer: x=32
Explanation: (x/4)+2=10
-subtract 2 from both sides of the equation
- you’re left with x/4=8
-multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the denominator and the answer is x=32

Answer:

x = 32

Explanation:

x/4 + 2 = 10

subtract 2 on both sides

x/4 + 2 - 2 = 10 - 2

x/4 = 8

Multiply 4 on both sides

x/4 * 4 = 8 * 4

x = 32

__________________________________________________________

Check:

32/4 + 2 = 10

8 + 2 = 10

10 = 10 CORRECT

Hope this helped!
