Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     5^2*x-(240)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (52 • x) -  240  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   25x - 240  =   5 • (5x - 48) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  5 • (5x - 48)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    5   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    5x-48 = 0 

 Add  48  to both sides of the equation : 
                      5x = 48
Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
                     x = 48/5 = 9.600
