Question

3x/5=30 solve the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3x}{5}=30\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}5\\\\\frac{5\cdot \:3x}{5}=30\cdot \:5\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\3x=150\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3\\\\\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{150}{3}\\\\x = 50$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve equations like this you need to to get x by itself.

So, Let's multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of 5.

3x/5 *5 = 30 * 5

= 3x = 150

Now we divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself,

3x/3 = 150/3

x = 50
