Question

Solve for x.
3x / 6 + 1 = 7

Answer 1

x = 12

given
`(3x)/(6)` + 1 = 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

`(3x)/(6)` = 6 ( multiply both sides by 6 )

3x = 36 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 12

Answer 2

3x/6 +1 = 7

Subtract 1 from each side:

3x/6 = 6

Multiply both sides by 6:

3x = 36

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 36 / 3

X = 12
