Question

Can you answer this question

Answer 1

Explanation:

x/8 + 12 = 16

x/8 = 16 - 12

x/8 = 4

x = 4 × 8

x = 32

--------------------

check

32/8 + 12 = 16

4 + 12 = 16

16 = 16

Answer 2

x = 32

Explanation:

`(x)/(8)` + 12 = 16 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

`(x)/(8)` + 12 - 12 = 16 - 12 ( simplify )

`(x)/(8)` = 4 ( multiply both sides by 8 to clear the fraction )

8 ×
`(x)/(8)` = 8 × 4 , that is

x = 32
