Simplifying

X + 59 + 84 + X + 51 = 180

Reorder the terms:

59 + 84 + 51 + X + X = 180

Combine like terms: 59 + 84 = 143

143 + 51 + X + X = 180

Combine like terms: 143 + 51 = 194

194 + X + X = 180

Combine like terms: X + X = 2X

194 + 2X = 180

Solving

194 + 2X = 180

Solving for variable 'X'.

Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-194' to each side of the equation.

194 + -194 + 2X = 180 + -194

Combine like terms: 194 + -194 = 0

0 + 2X = 180 + -194

2X = 180 + -194

Combine like terms: 180 + -194 = -14

2X = -14

Divide each side by '2'.

X = -7

Simplifying

X = -7

both equations and proportions are better.
