Answer:


x = 10(3)/(5)

Explanation:

"'x' minus 3/5 equals 10" can be written as:
x - (3)/(5)= 10\\.

=========================================


x - (3)/(5)= 10\\ \rule{150}{0.5}\\\\ x - (3)/(5) + (3)/(5) = 10 + (3)/(5)\\\\ \boxed{x = 10(3)/(5)}=========================================

Hope this helps!
