Solve x/5-2=20*5(x-3)/4

Evaluate

\frac{x}{5} - 2 = 20 (5 \times \frac{x - 3}{4})

Remove the parentheses

\frac{x}{5} - 2 = 20 \times 5 \times \frac{x - 3}{4}

Multiply

More Steps

\frac{x}{5} - 2 = 25 (x - 3)

Multiply both sides of the equation by LCD

(\frac{x}{5} - 2) \times 5 = 25 (x - 3) \times 5

Simplify the equation

More Steps

x - 10 = 25 (x - 3) \times 5

Simplify the equation

More Steps

x - 10 = 125 x - 375

Move the expression to the left side

x - 10 - 125 x = - 375

Move the expression to the right side

x - 125 x = - 375 + 10

Add and subtract

More Steps

- 124 x = - 375 + 10

Add and subtract

- 124 x = - 365

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

124 x = 365

Divide both sides

\frac{124 x}{124} = \frac{365}{124}

Solution

x = \frac{365}{124}

Alternative Form

x \approx 2.943548
