  Solution
12x + 3
There are two terms, 12x and 3....
Now, they have a common factor, 3, right?
So, we factorize 3 out in common from 12x + 3
When u remove 3 from 12x, we are left with 12x/3 or 4x. Similarly, when we remove 3 from 3, we are left with 3/3, i.e 1
So, we get :
3(4x + 1)
This is how Mr. Sal Khan came up with that :)
Now, how do we proceed?
First we take the given inequality....
9 >= 4x + 1
We had 12x + 3, which we have now obtained is nothing but 3(4x + 1)
So, take 9 >= 4x + 1 and multiply both sides by 3 :
3*9 >= 3(4x + 1)
27 >= 12x + 3
So, 12x + 3 <= 27
This is how tis done!
