## sylinan Group Title help please (x+20) over 2 = 3x one year ago one year ago

1. hba Group Title

$\frac{ x+20 }{ 2 }=3x$ 1)multiply both sides by 2 2) subtract both sides by 20 3)kaboom the answer appears.

2. sylinan Group Title

after i multiply 2 by both sides i got 20x=6x but i feel like that's wrong

3. hba Group Title

No it would be x+20=6x

4. sylinan Group Title

oh okay

5. sylinan Group Title

so i got x=6x so then i subtract x from both sides? and i get5x?

6. luvvikrant93 Group Title

5x=20 x=4

7. sylinan Group Title

how did you get that?(:

8. hba Group Title

No subtract from both sides girly x=6x-20

9. sylinan Group Title

@luvvikrant93

10. sylinan Group Title

@hba im really lost :/

11. hba Group Title

Now we can take the 20 on the other hand and x on the other. 6x-20=x 6x-x=20 5x=20

12. hba Group Title

Okay lemme start over again then @sylinan Or you can tell where i should continue.

13. sylinan Group Title

okay im confused because we subtracted 20 from both sides and then i got x= 6x

14. hba Group Title

Okay Lets see this x+20=6x Let us subtract x from both sides. Now do it.

15. sylinan Group Title

oh okay i get it now so when you do that is when you get 5x=20

16. hba Group Title

Yes now divide both sides by 5

17. luvvikrant93 Group Title

(x+20)/2=3x x+20=6x 20=6x-x 20=5x x=20/5 x=4

18. sylinan Group Title
