Switch sides.
\[48=x,x+2,x+4\]
Break down the problem into these 3 equations.
\[48=x\]
\[48=x+2\]
\[48=x+4\]
Solve the 1st equation: \(48=x\).
\[x=48\]
Solve the 2nd equation: \(48=x+2\).
Subtract \(2\) from both sides.
\[48-2=x\]
Simplify \(48-2\) to \(46\).
\[46=x\]
Switch sides.
\[x=46\]
\[x=46\]
Solve the 3rd equation: \(48=x+4\).
Subtract \(4\) from both sides.
\[48-4=x\]
Simplify \(48-4\) to \(44\).
\[44=x\]
Switch sides.
\[x=44\]
\[x=44\]
Collect all solutions.
\[x=48,46,44\]
x=48,46,44
