I think you r qrong no offense
Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
x/5-12=48
add 12 to both sides
x/5+12-12=48+12
x/5+0=60
x/5=60
multiply bot sides by 5/1
5x/5=60 times 5
x times 5/5=300
x times 1=300
x=300
the answer would be 5 because 5*5 or 5 squared (5^2) is equal to 25, hope this helps!
