x=05−511x=0
Solve the equation for x
More Steps

Evaluate
5−511x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−511x=0−5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−511x=−5
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
511x=5
Divide both sides
511511x=5115
Divide the numbers
x=5115
x=0x=5115
