Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to this question is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, we can form an equation.

6x - 8 = 16

Transposing 8 to RHS

6x = 16 + 8

6x = 24

x = 24/6

x = 4

Answer 2

Given: $6x-8=16$

To Find: The value of $x$

Solution:

$6x-8=16$

• Take 8 to the other side and hence, change the sign:

$6x = 16+8$

• Add the terms:

$6x = 24$

• Take 6 to the other side and hence, change its operation:

$x = \frac{24}{6}$

• Divide now:

$x = 4$

Final Answer:

Hence, the value of $x$ is $4$.
