Solve 4 * (x/5 - 1/10) = 2/5

Evaluate

4 (\frac{x}{5} - \frac{1}{10}) = \frac{2}{5}

Multiply the terms

More Steps

\frac{4 x}{5} - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{2}{5}

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

\frac{4 x}{5} = \frac{2}{5} + \frac{2}{5}

Add the numbers

More Steps

\frac{4 x}{5} = \frac{4}{5}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5

\frac{4 x}{5} \times 5 = \frac{4}{5} \times 5

Multiply the terms

4 x = 4

Divide both sides

\frac{4 x}{4} = \frac{4}{4}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{4}{4}
