(17x-8x+3)∶6=14 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(17*x-8*x+3)/6 = 14
Expand brackets in the left part
17*x/6-8*x/6+3/6 = 14
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
1/2 + 3*x/2 = 14
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$\frac{3 x}{2} = \frac{27}{2}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3/2
x = 27/2 / (3/2)
We get the answer: x = 9
