$$10 \% (x+20)=3$$

Solve for x

$$x=10$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{10}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 10.

$$\frac{1}{10}\left(x+20\right)=3$$

Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{1}{10} by x+20.

$$\frac{1}{10}x+\frac{1}{10}\times 20=3$$

Multiply \frac{1}{10} and 20 to get \frac{20}{10}.

$$\frac{1}{10}x+\frac{20}{10}=3$$

Divide 20 by 10 to get 2.

$$\frac{1}{10}x+2=3$$

Subtract 2 from both sides.

$$\frac{1}{10}x=3-2$$

Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.

$$\frac{1}{10}x=1$$

Multiply both sides by 10, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{10}.

$$x=1\times 10$$

Multiply 1 and 10 to get 10.

$$x=10$$
