Answer
$x = 8$
Work Step by Step
To solve this equation, we first use distributive property to get rid of the parentheses:
$6x - 24 = 3x$
Add $24$ to each side of the equation to move the constant to the right side of the equation:
$6x = 3x + 24$
Subtract $3x$ from each side to isolate the $x$ terms to the left side of the equation:
$3x = 24$
Divide each side by $3$ to solve for $x$:
$x = 8$
