Greetings!

Solve for x.

45(15x+20)-7x=56(12x-24)+6
Distribute the Parenthesis.

675x+900-7x=56(12x-24)+6

675x+900-7x=672x-1344+6
Combine Like Terms.

668x+900=672x-1338
Add 1338 to both sides.

(668x+900)+1338=(672x-1338)+1338
Subtract 668x from both sides.

[(668x+900)+1338]-668x=[(672x-1338)+1338]-668x
Simplify.

900+1338=672x-668x

2238=4x
Divide both sides by 4.

(2238)/4=(4x)/4
Simplify.

559.5=x

x=559.5

Hope this helps.
