1. Problem: Solve the equation $\frac{2x+4}{3} = 6$ for $x$.
2. Formula and rules: To solve for $x$, multiply both sides by the denominator to eliminate the fraction.
3. Multiply both sides by 3:
$$\cancel{3} \times \frac{2x+4}{\cancel{3}} = 6 \times 3$$
which simplifies to
$$2x + 4 = 18$$
4. Subtract 4 from both sides:
$$2x + 4 - 4 = 18 - 4$$
$$2x = 14$$
5. Divide both sides by 2:
$$\frac{2x}{\cancel{2}} = \frac{14}{\cancel{2}}$$
$$x = 7$$
6. Final answer: $x = 7$
