Add the numbers
48x3
48x3−5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
48x3=0+5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
48x3=5
Divide both sides
4848x3=485
Divide the numbers
x3=485
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3485
Calculate
x=3485
