Question 219683
{{{12(2-x)=6}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{24-12x=6}}} Distribute.



{{{-12x=6-24}}} Subtract {{{24}}} from both sides.



{{{-12x=-18}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-18)/(-12)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-12}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=3/2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the answer is {{{x=3/2}}} which in decimal form is {{{x=1.5}}}.
