The lines y = 6x + 3 and y = 111 meet at x = 1812141618202224708090100110120130140150x = 18y = 6x + 3y = 111
The lines y = 6x + 3 and y = 111 meet at x = 18. The solution of the equation is the x-coordinate of the point where the two sides are equal.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    The goal is to get x alone. Undo the operations in the opposite order: first the addition, then the multiplication.

    6x+3=1116x + 3 = 111
  2. 2

    Subtract 3 from both sides:

    6x+3−3=111−3 ⇒ 6x=1086x + 3 - 3 = 111 - 3 \ \Rightarrow\ 6x = 108
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 6:

    6x6=1086 ⇒ x=18\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{108}{6} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 18
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 18 back into the equation.
