Add the 2 to the 1 and then minus 2x from 4x so you get 2x = 3

The answer would be x= 3/2

You would take 2 and add it to the other side leaving 4x by itself, leaving you with the equation 4x= 2x + 3.
Then you would divide both side by 2 giving you 2x= 3. Then you would divide by 2 again to get x=3/2.
