768\times 2=\left(24+x\right)\times 36
Multiply both sides by 2.
1536=\left(24+x\right)\times 36
Multiply 768 and 2 to get 1536.
1536=864+36x
Use the distributive property to multiply 24+x by 36.
864+36x=1536
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
36x=1536-864
Subtract 864 from both sides.
36x=672
Subtract 864 from 1536 to get 672.
x=\frac{672}{36}
Divide both sides by 36.
x=\frac{56}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{672}{36} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 12.
