Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation: Start off by solving the right side of the equation: 4 x 2 is 8 and 6 - 3 is 3, and then you must do 8 x 3 which is 24. Now, the equation should look like this: 24 = 4 x _ x 2. Next, you should go a step further with the left side of the equation by multiplying 4 and 2. Now, the equation should look like this: 24 = 8 x _. For the final step, you must divide 8 on both sides to solve for the missing number. Since 24 divided by 8 is 3, your answer is 3.
