Best Answer

24 = 3x x = 8

Why?

This is the algebraic version.

1) Make the 3x into just into the variable by dividing 3 by 3 which is one and a variable is always understood algebraically as one.

24 = 3x

--- = 1 or x

3

2) Do the same on both sides on if you divide by 3 on the right side, do it to the left as well.

24 = 3x

8 = --- --- = 1 or x

3 3

x = 8
