To solve the equation \(3.2x + 12 = 48\), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

    \[ 3.2x + 12 - 12 = 48 - 12 \]

    This simplifies to:

    \[ 3.2x = 36 \]

  2. Now, divide both sides by 3.2 to isolate \(x\):

    \[ x = \frac{36}{3.2} \]

  3. Calculate \( \frac{36}{3.2} \):

    \[ x = 11.25 \]

So the solution is:

\[ x = 11.25 \]
