Solve 1-2x/3*24=4

$$\frac { 1 - 2 x } { 3 } \cdot 24 = 4$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 24.

$$\frac{1-2x}{3}=\frac{4}{24}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{24} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{1-2x}{3}=\frac{1}{6}$$

Multiply both sides by 3.

$$1-2x=\frac{1}{6}\times 3$$

Multiply \frac{1}{6} and 3 to get \frac{3}{6}.

$$1-2x=\frac{3}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{3}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$1-2x=\frac{1}{2}$$

Subtract 1 from both sides.

$$-2x=\frac{1}{2}-1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{2}{2}.

$$-2x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2}{2}$$

Since \frac{1}{2} and \frac{2}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$-2x=\frac{1-2}{2}$$

Subtract 2 from 1 to get -1.

$$-2x=-\frac{1}{2}$$

Divide both sides by -2.

$$x=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-2}$$

Express \frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-2} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{-1}{2\left(-2\right)}$$

Multiply 2 and -2 to get -4.

$$x=\frac{-1}{-4}$$

Fraction \frac{-1}{-4} can be simplified to \frac{1}{4} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$x=\frac{1}{4}$$
