Solution

Simplifying the equation
The given equation $x + 4 = 12$ is a simple equation
By Inspection method,what should be added to left hand side so that it becomes equal to right hand side.
so $8 + 4 = 12$
or $x + 4 = 12$
Subtracting $4$ on both sides,we get
$x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4$
$\Rightarrow x = 8$
Therefore $x = 8$ is the solution of the given equation
