Solution - Adding, subtracting and finding the least common multiple
Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "2.2" was replaced by "(22/10)". 2 more similar replacement(s)
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-x-((68/10)*x-4*((22/10)*x-6)-10)=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
11
Simplify ——

Equation at the end of step 1 :
68 11
-x-(((——•x)-(4•((——•x)-6)))-10) = 0
10 5
Step 2 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
2.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
6 6 • 5
6 = — = —————
1 5
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
11x - (6 • 5) 11x - 30
————————————— = ————————
5 5
Equation at the end of step 2 :
68 (11x-30)
-x-(((——•x)-(4•————————))-10) = 0
10 5
Step 3 :
Equation at the end of step 3 :
68 4•(11x-30)
-x-(((——•x)-——————————)-10) = 0
10 5
Step 4 :
34
Simplify ——
5
Equation at the end of step 4 :
34 4 • (11x - 30)
-x - (((—— • x) - ——————————————) - 10) = 0
5 5
Step 5 :
Adding fractions which have a common denominator :
5.1 Adding fractions which have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
34x - (4 • (11x-30)) 120 - 10x
———————————————————— = —————————
5 5
Equation at the end of step 5 :
(120 - 10x)
-x - (——————————— - 10) = 0

Step 6 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
6.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
10 10 • 5
10 = —— = ——————
1 5
Step 7 :
Pulling out like terms :
7.1 Pull out like factors :
120 - 10x = -10 • (x - 12)
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
7.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
-2 • (x-12) - (10) 14 - 2x
—————————————————— = ———————
1 1
Equation at the end of step 7 :
(14 - 2x)
-x - ————————— = 0
1
Step 8 :
Equation at the end of step 8 :
x - 14 = 0
Step 9 :
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
9.1 Solve : x-14 = 0
Add 14 to both sides of the equation :
x = 14
One solution was found :
x = 14How did we do?
