Question

X-3 divided by 4 = 12

Answer 1

`\Huge \boxed{x=51}`

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`

Explanation:

`\displaystyle (x-3)/(4) =12`

Multiplying both sides by 4.

`\displaystyle (x-3)/(4) *4=12 *4`

`x-3=48`

Adding 3 to both sides.

`x-3+3=48+3`

`x=51`

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`

Answer 2

x = 51

Explanation:

(x-3) /4 = 12

Multiply each side by 4

(x-3) /4 *4 = 12*4

x-3 = 48

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 48+3

x = 51
