Answer:

Explanation:

The equation 6x + 3 = 27 is equivalent to 2x = 8 because you can divide 8 by 2x to get X=4. To solve 6x + 3 = 27, you can subtract 3 to both sides of the equal sign to end up with 6x = 24, and from there you can divide 24 by 6x and also end up with X = 4. Both equations have the same answer.
