What value of
Isolate the 
on the left side of the equation by performing the same steps on both sides. These steps should be the opposite of the operations performed on 
, as follows:
Multiplication precedes subtraction in the order of operations, so reverse the subtraction of 12 by adding 12 to both sides:
Now reverse multiplication by 2 by dividing by 2:
.
