3x+24=y\times 12
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+8.
3x=y\times 12-24
Subtract 24 from both sides.
3x=12y-24
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{12y-24}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{12y-24}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
x=4y-8
Divide -24+12y by 3.
3x+24=y\times 12
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+8.
y\times 12=3x+24
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
12y=3x+24
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{12y}{12}=\frac{3x+24}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
y=\frac{3x+24}{12}
Dividing by 12 undoes the multiplication by 12.
y=\frac{x}{4}+2
Divide 24+3x by 12.
