The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
1/12*x+3 = 18+1/3*x
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$\frac{x}{12} = \frac{x}{3} + 15$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{\left(-1\right) x}{4} = 15$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -1/4
x = 15 / (-1/4)
We get the answer: x = -60
