Solve 6(5-x) 15=5(2x-7)

Evaluate

6 (5 - x) \times 15 = 5 (2 x - 7)

Multiply the terms

90 (5 - x) = 5 (2 x - 7)

Calculate

More Steps

450 - 90 x = 5 (2 x - 7)

Calculate

More Steps

450 - 90 x = 10 x - 35

Move the expression to the left side

450 - 90 x - (10 x - 35) = 0

Calculate

More Steps

485 - 100 x = 0

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

- 100 x = 0 - 485

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

- 100 x = - 485

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

100 x = 485

Divide both sides

\frac{100 x}{100} = \frac{485}{100}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{485}{100}

Solution

x = \frac{97}{20}

Alternative Form

x = 4.85
