Answer 2

`\displaystyle (121)/(48)`

or

`2.5208\bar3`

Solve

To begin, subtract 23 from both sides of the equation. This will move the constants to the right side.

`96x=242`

Then, divide both sides of the equation by 96. This will isolate the unknown, x, and allow you to solve the equation.

`\displaystyle (96x)/(96)=(242)/(96)`

`\displaystyle x=(121)/(48)`

There are two different answers that are equivalent but will depend on what you are looking for.

For a fraction answer, your final answer is
`\displaystyle (121)/(48)`.

For a decimal answer, your final answer is
`2.5208\bar3`.
