Question

What does x equal with this equation
x/6-33= -27

Answer 1

x/6-33=-27
-27+33=6
x/6=6
6x6=36
X=36

Answer 2

The first thing that we have to do is add 33 to both sides to try to reduce the amount of variables on the left hand side.

`(x)/(6) - 33 = -27`

`(x)/(6) - 33 + 33 = -27 + 33`

`(x)/(6) = 6`

Now that we have simplified the left hand side even more we only have one part left to get x by itself which is to multiply both sides by 6.

`(x)/(6) = 6`

`(x)/(6) * 6 = 6 * 6`

`x = 36`

Therefore, our final answer for what the value of x equals is 36.
