12x3
12x3−32=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
12x3=0+32
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
12x3=32
Divide both sides
1212x3=1232
Divide the numbers
x3=1232
Cancel out the common factor 4
x3=38
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=338
Calculate
x=338
