Question

X-14 over 2 = 12
PLEASEEEE EXPLAIN

Answer 1

we are given

number is x-14

denominator is 2

so, we can write equation as

`(x-14)/(2) =12`

Firstly , we will multiply both sides by 2

`2*(x-14)/(2) =2*12`

`x-14 =24`

now, we can isolate x on anyone side

we can add both sides 14

`x-14 +14=24+14`

`x=38`................Answer
