WHAT DO WE KNOW?
(? + 12) x 3 = 66
Think it through!
Let us figure out what (?+12) could
be
What can we multiply by 3 that will
give us 66? How can we find that
 22
We divide 66 by 3 3 66

Now we know - 22 x 3 = 66

Remember this from before

(? + 12) x 3 = 66

Therefore ? + 12 = 22
? = 22-12
= 10
 Multiply
10 add 12
by 3

66

(10 + 12) x 3 = 66

22 x 3 = 66
