Question #d4fc2 Prealgebra 1 Answer Saphire · Anirudh E. · Meave60 Dec 14, 2017 If #2a+a=18#, then what is the value of #a#? Explanation: First step is to add the the #a#'s together. In result you get #3a=18#. Then you divide by #3# on both sides. The #3#s on the left side cancel out, and on the other side you get #6#. So you get #a=6#. Ta da! You're done! I hope that helps!
