Solve 168=(16*4+1*4)*x/2

$$168= \frac{ (16 \times 4+1 \times 4) \times x }{ 2 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{84}{17} = 4\frac{16}{17} \approx 4.941176471$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by 2.

$$168\times 2=\left(16\times 4+1\times 4\right)x$$

Multiply 168 and 2 to get 336.

$$336=\left(16\times 4+1\times 4\right)x$$

Multiply 16 and 4 to get 64. Multiply 1 and 4 to get 4.

$$336=\left(64+4\right)x$$

Add 64 and 4 to get 68.

$$336=68x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$68x=336$$

Divide both sides by 68.

$$x=\frac{336}{68}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{336}{68} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$x=\frac{84}{17}$$
