Clip was trying to add more bouncing balls to his collection. The equation he was using was 4x + 32 = 44

| I have 18. How many do you have? | |
 | |  |

| I have 32. If i had 4 more bouncing balls for every 6 you have how many would i have? | |

Good thing Mr.9Eyes knows how to do algebra.

| If your answer is 44, and you started off with 32 then you added 12. So 12 divided by 4 equals 3, So x=3. You would gain 3 groups of 4 bouncing balls for every 6 I have. | |
