You can
put this solution on YOUR website!You must get all numbers on one side then all variables on the other.
So you must get the 12 over to the left by dividing it into the -288. Also if you do it to one side you do it to the other.
-288/12=12b/12
-24=b
Ok so lets see if I am right.
-288=12(-24)
-288=-288
