    The equation that represents the situation is x + 6 = 24

    The value of x that makes the equation true is 18

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Tim has x marbles,

    Number of marble with Tim = x

    The number of marbles Nirja has is 6 more than the number of marbles Tim has.

    Number of marbles with Nirja = x + 6

    Nirja has 24 marbles.

    That is

    x + 6 = 24

    The equation that represents the situation is x + 6 = 24

    On solving

    x = 24 - 6 = 18

    The value of x that makes the equation true is 18
