Solve 5(6x-4)=4(2x-1)

Evaluate

5 (6 x - 4) = 4 (2 x - 1)

Calculate

More Steps

30 x - 20 = 4 (2 x - 1)

Calculate

More Steps

30 x - 20 = 8 x - 4

Move the expression to the left side

30 x - 20 - (8 x - 4) = 0

Calculate

More Steps

22 x - 16 = 0

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

22 x = 0 + 16

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

22 x = 16

Divide both sides

\frac{22 x}{22} = \frac{16}{22}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{16}{22}

Solution

x = \frac{8}{11}

Alternative Form

x = 0. \dot{7} \dot{2}
