Solve for x x/4+6=10

$\frac{x}{4} + 6 = 10$

Step 1

Move all terms not containing $x$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $6$ from both sides of the equation.

$\frac{x}{4} = 10 - 6$

Subtract $6$ from $10$ .

$\frac{x}{4} = 4$

Step 2

Multiply both sides of the equation by $4$ .

$4 \frac{x}{4} = 4 \cdot 4$

Step 3

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$4 \frac{x}{4} = 4 \cdot 4$

Rewrite the expression.

$x = 4 \cdot 4$

Simplify the right side.

Multiply $4$ by $4$ .

$x = 16$
