Solve for X 4X=2X+6

$4 X = 2 X + 6$

Step 1

Move all terms containing $X$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $2 X$ from both sides of the equation.

$4 X - 2 X = 6$

Subtract $2 X$ from $4 X$ .

$2 X = 6$

Step 2

Divide each term in $2 X = 6$ by $2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $2 X = 6$ by $2$ .

$\frac{2 X}{2} = \frac{6}{2}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 X}{2} = \frac{6}{2}$

Divide $X$ by $1$ .

$X = \frac{6}{2}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $6$ by $2$ .

$X = 3$
