Multiply 2 * 12

24 = x * 24

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

24 = 24x

Solving

24 = 24x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-24x' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24x = 24x + -24x

Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0

24 + -24x = 0

Add '-24' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24 + -24x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0

0 + -24x = 0 + -24

-24x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24

-24x = -24

Divide each side by '-24'.

x = 1

Simplifying

x = 1
