x/6 + 3 = 9
x/6 = 9-3
x/6 = 6
x = 6*6
x=36

when solving for a variable, you need to remember your order of operations. you want to isolate your variable on one side of the equation. so x/6+3-3=9-3 you are left with x/6=6 now divide both sides by 6 and your are left with x=1. Remeber too what you do to one side of the equation, you must do to the other.

x/6 + 3 = 9
Subtract 3 from both sides:
x/6 = 6
Multiply both sides by 6:
x = 36.

You've got your original equation:
x/6 + 3 = 9
Subtract 3 from both sides.
x/6 = 6
Now multiply both sides by 6, so that it won't be under that x anymore.
x = 36
