Sooo since it’s a multiple step equation and it’s subtracting so start out by adding b/c we are trying to find x by getting it by itsself sooo
20 +4 = 24
24 since it’s a fraction fractions are practically dividing to find the decimal so we have to multiply to get x by it’s self 2 over 3 as a decimal is .666666 repeating soooo we multiply 24 by .6
24*.6 = 14.4
So 14.4 =x
