Answer 1

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

1. First, add 9 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with \( x \): \[ \frac{x}{3} = 6 + 9 \] \[ \frac{x}{3} = 15 \]

2. Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = 15 \times 3 \] \[ x = 45 \]

Thus, the solution for \( x \) is \( \boxed{45} \).
