12x-\left(x+3\right)=52
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
12x-x-3=52
To find the opposite of x+3, find the opposite of each term.
11x-3=52
Combine 12x and -x to get 11x.
11x=52+3
Add 3 to both sides.
11x=55
Add 52 and 3 to get 55.
x=\frac{55}{11}
Divide both sides by 11.
x=5
Divide 55 by 11 to get 5.
