Solve 4(x+1)=2(3-x)

Evaluate

4 (x + 1) = 2 (3 - x)

Calculate

More Steps

4 x + 4 = 2 (3 - x)

Calculate

More Steps

4 x + 4 = 6 - 2 x

Move the expression to the left side

4 x + 4 - (6 - 2 x) = 0

Calculate the sum or difference

More Steps

6 x - 2 = 0

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

6 x = 0 + 2

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

6 x = 2

Divide both sides

\frac{6 x}{6} = \frac{2}{6}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{2}{6}

Solution

x = \frac{1}{3}

Alternative Form

x = 0. \dot{3}
