    Multiply the bracket by 3

    3 (x-2) = 12

    3 (x) - 3 (2) = 12

    3x-6 = 12

    Move - 6 to the other side. Sign changes from - 6 to + 6.

    3x-6+6 = 12+6

    3x = 18

    Divide by 3 for 3x and 18

    3x/3 = 18/3

    x = 6

    Check answer by using substitution method

    3 (x-2) = 12

    3 (6-2) = 12 (Multiply the bracket by 3)

    18-6 = 12

    12 = 12

    Answer : x = 6
