 (7x+3)/(2)+(x+6)/(4)=18     multiply through by the common denominator of 2 and 4, i.e., 4

 

(7x + 3)(2)  + (x + 6)   = 72        distribute the 2 over the terms in the parentheses

 

14x + 6  + x + 6   = 72       simplify

 

15x + 12   = 72      subtract 12 from both sides

 

15x   = 60      divide both sides by 15

 

x = 4
