Question 597386: I am just beginning with Solving Two-step Equations and am at a loss. Most of the time if I can see a problem worked out on paper I can figure it out from there. The problem is x divided by 6 minus 3 equals 1. Any help would be great

The problem is x divided by 6 minus 3 equals 1.
:
x%2F6 - 3 = 1
Add 3 to both sides
x%2F6 = 1 + 3
x%2F6 = 4
multiply both sides by 6
x = 4*6
x = 24
