Answer:

x = 10

Explanation:

Based on the given conditions, formulate: 140 - 12 X x = 20

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: -12x = 20 - 140

Calculate the sum or difference: -12x = -120

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable: x = -120/-12

Determine the sign for multiplication or division: x = 120/12

Cross out the common factor: x = 10

get the result: x = 10

Answer: x = 10
