Let's solve the equation step by step:
12 - x/9 = 11
Subtract 12 from both sides:
-x/9 = -1
Now, multiply both sides by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
9 * (-x/9) = 9 * (-1)
-x = -9
Multiply both sides by -1 to isolate x:
x = 9
Therefore, the solution is x = 9.
12 - x/9 = 11
Subtract 12 from both sides:
-x/9 = -1
Now, multiply both sides by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
9 * (-x/9) = 9 * (-1)
-x = -9
Multiply both sides by -1 to isolate x:
x = 9
Therefore, the solution is x = 9.
