Which is the correct answer for this equation:


x/4 - 12 = 8

1 answer

To solve the equation x/4 - 12 = 8, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, we can eliminate the 12 from the left side of the equation by adding 12 to both sides:

x/4 - 12 + 12 = 8 + 12
x/4 = 20

Next, we can isolate x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4:

4(x/4) = 4(20)
x = 80

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 80.
