Solve 3/4(20x-8)-3=54

Evaluate

\frac{3}{4} (20 x - 8) - 3 = 54

Simplify

More Steps

15 x - 9 = 54

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

15 x = 54 + 9

Add the numbers

15 x = 63

Divide both sides

\frac{15 x}{15} = \frac{63}{15}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{63}{15}

Solution

x = \frac{21}{5}

Alternative Form

x = 4.2
