To solve for an equation with the variable x, we need to isolate it on one side. In other words, we have to make sure that only the variable is on one side while all the numbers are on the other.
So, we have the equation:
5x + 323 = 23423
Start off by subtracting both sides by 323:
5x = 23423 - 323
5x = 23100
Now divide both sides by 5:
5x/5 = 23100/5
x = 23100/5
x = 4620
Good Luck!
