Solve 21 (8x-6) = x-12

Evaluate

21 (8 x - 6) = x - 12

Expand the expression

More Steps

168 x - 126 = x - 12

Move the expression to the left side

168 x - 126 - x = - 12

Move the expression to the right side

168 x - x = - 12 + 126

Add and subtract

More Steps

167 x = - 12 + 126

Add and subtract

167 x = 114

Divide both sides

\frac{167 x}{167} = \frac{114}{167}

Solution

x = \frac{114}{167}
