Question

Solve this. Give explanation....
$2(x + 3) = 28$
​

Answer 1

2 ( x + 3 ) = 28

2x + 6 = 28

2x = 28 - 6

2x = 22

x = 22/2

x = 11 ➡ Answer

Answer 2

$\sf \Large Solution!!$

2(x + 3) = 28

2x + 6 = 28

2x = 28 - 6

2x = 22

x = 22 ÷ 2

x = 11

Verification.

2(11 + 3) = 28

2(14) = 28

28 = 28

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.
