Asher solved the equation below:

4x = 64
4x − 4 = 64 − 4
x = 60

is asher's solution correct? if the solution is incorrect, explain why it is incorrect and show the correct steps to solve the equation.

The correct solution is x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

4x = 64

4x - 4 = 64 - 4    (Wrong step)

x = 60

No, Asher solution is not correct.

We are given equation 4x = 64

Here Asher subtract 4 both sides (Wrong Step)

4 is coefficient of x so, we ill divide by 4 both sides instead of subtraction.

Correct step: To divide by 4 both sides

Now cancel like factor and reduce the fraction

Hence, The correct solution is x=16
