Simplify quantity 3 times x plus 9 all over 3 3x + 3 x + 3 x + 9 x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi! welcome to openstudy! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so your equation is (3x + 9)/3, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what you would do is to divide 3x by 3 and divide 9 by 3 and add them together.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x divided by 3 is x and 9 divided by 3 is 3, so what do you think you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x+9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9 divided by 3 is 3... so not exactly...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

close, though :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes :D
