    multiply second equation by 2 and rewrite

    4a + 6b = 10

    4a - 8b = 24

    subtract equations

    0 + 14b = - 14

    14b = - 14

    b = - 1

    sub back into 4a + 6b = 10 to find the value of a

    4a + 6 (-1) = 10

    4a - 6 = 10

    4a = 16

    a = 4

    therefore, 12a = 12*4

    12a is 48
