Question

`(x)/(5) = 10`
what is x equal to in this equation ​

Answer 1

x = 50

Explanation:

In order to solve this question, we need to make the number next to x equal to 1.

To do this, we multiply x by 5, to cancel out the 1/5.

However, we can't just change one side of an equation and not the other, so we also need to multiply the other side by 5 as well.

It all ends up looking like this:

`5*(1)/(5) x=10*5\\(5)/(5)x=50\\ x=50`

Therefore our answer is x = 50 :)

Answer 2

50

Explanation:

`(x)/(5)=10`

`x=5(10)`

`x=50`
