How Do You Solve for x? To solve for x, bring the variable to one side, and bring all the remaining values to the other side by applying arithmetic operations on both sides of the equation. Simplify the values to find the result.
Getting x by itself depends on the particular question. Usually you will want to combine like terms and then cancel, but there are many different possibilities. Generally, think of what is being done to x and then "undo" it by doing the opposite, and do that on both sides of the equal sign.

We have 4 ways of solving one-step equations: Adding, Substracting, multiplication and division. If we add the same number to both sides of an equation, both sides will remain equal.
To solve for x, bring the variable to one side, and bring all the remaining values to the other side by applying arithmetic operations on both sides of the equation. Simplify the values to find the result.
