What is the x in 120 (2x-2) = 240

X=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

120 (2x-2) = 240

(120) (2x) + (120) (-2) = 240 (Distribute)

240x+-240=240

240x-240=240

Step 2: Add 240 to both sides.

240x-240+240=240+240

240x=480

Step 3: Divide both sides by 240.

240x / 240 = 480 / 240

x=2
