Given the equation:
[tex]4x=48[/tex]To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{48}{4} \\ x=\frac{48}{4} \\ =\frac{4\times12}{4} \\ Cancel\text{ out 4 in the numerator and denominator on the right-hand side} \\ x=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of x is 12.
