Question

Solve this equation . 6x = 72 for x

Answer 1

Explanation:

6x = 72

Here, 6 is in multiplication with the variable x.

We will move 6 to the right side. With this the 6 which was in multiplication with x will now go in division with 72, by rule.

x = 72/6

x = 12

therefore, x = 12

Answer 2

x = 12

Explanation:

6x = 72 ( isolate x by dividing both sides by 6 )

x = 72 ÷ 6 = 12
