Answer:
3/5 or
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
You could change these fractions to decimals, but you may not be convinced that the answer you get is the same as just using fractions. I'll start by using fractions.
x - 2/5 = 1/5 Add 2/5 to both sides
x - 2/5 + 2/5 = 1/5 + 2/5 The left side cancels to 0.
x = 1/5 + 2/5 The denominators (bottom the fraction) are the same. Just add the tops.
x = (1 + 2)/5
x = 3/5
=======================
If you use your calculator to find 2/5 and 1/5, you can get the same answer as 3/5
2
÷
5
=
0.4
By the same method, 1/5 = 0.2
Substitute into the original equation
x - 0.4 = 0.2 Add 0.4 to both sides
x - 0.4 +0.4 = 0.2 + 0.4 The left side reduces just to x
x = 0.2 +0.4
x = 0.6
If you let your calculator do the work, like this
3
÷
5
=
0.6
The answers are the same.

Answer:
$390+0.07s=$544+0.05s Subtract $390 from each side.
0.07s=$154+0.05s Subtract 0.05s from each side.
0.02s=$154 Divide each side by 0.02.
