Answer 1

To solve the equation \(\frac{x}{3} - 9 = 6\) for \(x\), follow these steps:

1. Add 9 to both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{x}{3} - 9 + 9 = 6 + 9 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{x}{3} = 15 \]

2. To eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 3: \[ 3 \cdot \frac{x}{3} = 15 \cdot 3 \] This simplifies to: \[ x = 45 \]

So, the solution is \(x = 45\).
