More Steps

Multiply the terms

9 x^{2} \times 12 x

Multiply the terms

108 x^{2} \times x

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

108 x^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers

108 x^{3}

108 x^{3} - 12 = 0

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

108 x^{3} = 0 + 12

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

108 x^{3} = 12

Divide both sides

\frac{108 x ^{3}}{108} = \frac{12}{108}

Divide the numbers

x^{3} = \frac{12}{108}

Cancel out the common factor 12

x^{3} = \frac{1}{9}

Take the 3 -th root on both sides of the equation

3 x^{3} = 3 \frac{1}{9}

Calculate

x = 3 \frac{1}{9}
