Given the numerical statement:

1= 1 over 6(24x+6)

This can be written as,

1 = 1/6(24x + 6)

Solution:

In order to solve, we cross multiply 6(24x +6) to the other equation on the right.

1= 1/ 6(24x+6)

1(6)(24x + 6) = 1

144x + 36 = 1

Transpose 36 on the other side of the equation, note that when transposing a number, the sign changes.

144x = 1 -36

144x = -35

Divide both sides by 144 in order to get the value of x.

144x/144 = -35/144

x = -0.243

Final answer:

 x = -0.243
