Answer:

1.  Distribute the 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(6+x)=24

You can do one of two things

1.  Distribute the 3

3*6+3x=24

Or

you can divide each side by 3

The only reason it is a good choice to divide each side by 3 is that 24 is divisible by 3

3(6+x)/3=24/3

6+x = 8

Either answer is an acceptable 1st step
