To solve for x, we first need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
12 - x/9 = 11
Multiply both sides by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
108 - x = 99
Add x to both sides to isolate x:
108 - x + x = 99 + x
108 = 99 + x
Subtract 99 from both sides:
108 - 99 = 99 - 99 + x
9 = x
So the solution to the equation is x = 9.
12 - x/9 = 11
Multiply both sides by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
108 - x = 99
Add x to both sides to isolate x:
108 - x + x = 99 + x
108 = 99 + x
Subtract 99 from both sides:
108 - 99 = 99 - 99 + x
9 = x
So the solution to the equation is x = 9.
