Answer:

x=24

Explanation:

The Quotient(dividing) of a number(x) and 6 minus(-) 3 IS(=) 1.

Which turns into:


(x)/(6) - 3 = 1

We want to get x by itself so we divide the entire equation by 6.

6 (
(x)/(6) - 3 = 1 )

x - 18 = 6

We want to move the plain numbers to one side so x can be by itself. So we add 18 to both sides.

x = 24
