Question

4(x-5)-16=24.3

Answer 1

\(4\left(x-5\right)-16=24\cdot3\)

\(\Rightarrow4\left(x-5\right)-16=72\)

\(\Rightarrow4\left(x-5\right)=72+16\)

\(\Rightarrow4\left(x-5\right)=88\)

\(\Rightarrow x-5=\dfrac{88}{4}\)

\(\Rightarrow x-5=22\)

\(\Rightarrow x=22+5\)

\(\Rightarrow x=27\)

Answer 2

\(4.\left(x-5\right)-16=24.3\)

\(4.\left(x-5\right)-16=72\)

\(4.\left(x-5\right)=72+16\)

\(4.x-5=88\)

\(x-5=88:4\)

\(x-5=22\)

\(x=22+5\)

\(x=27\)

Answer 3

$4.\left(x-5\right)-16=24.3$

$4.\left(x-5\right)-16=72$

$4.\left(x-5\right)=72+16$

$4.x-5=88$

$x-5=88:4$

$x-5=22$

$x=22+5$

$x=27$
