664x2−6=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
664x2=0+6
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
664x2=6
Divide both sides
664664x2=6646
Divide the numbers
x2=6646
Cancel out the common factor 2
x2=3323
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±3323
