into words and numbers like this is how I did my other one Subtract 69 from both sides. 

then you get: -24 = 3b 

Divide each side by 3. 

You get b= -8 and that is the answer

8x-12 = 4x+24
Add twelve to both sides: 8x-12+12=4x+24+12, 8x=4x+36
Subtract 4x from both sides: 8x-4x=4x-4x+36, 4x=36
Divide both sides by four: 4x/4=36/4, x=9
