Factor the expression
2x4(1−2380x)=0
Divide both sides
x4(1−2380x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x4=01−2380x=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=01−2380x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
1−2380x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−2380x=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−2380x=−1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
2380x=1
Divide both sides
23802380x=23801
Divide the numbers
x=23801
x=0x=23801
Solution
x1=0,x2=23801
