312 base 4
= 3(4)^2 + 1(4) + 2 in base 10
= 48+4+2
= 54

so your equation becomes
54 + 52x = 96
52x = 42
x = 42/52 = 21/26 <---- that would be in base 10

or maybe they mean "base x"
In that case,
54 + 5x+2 = 96
5x = 40
x = 8

again, we are faced with poorly worded questions.
So many in this last batch.
