To solve an algebraic equation, we need to get x by itself. We can start to do that by multiplying each side of the equation by 62 (to remove the denominator of x).


x + 89(62) = 92 * 62


Simplify


x = 92 * 62 - 89 * 62


Now we can factor out 62


x = 62 (92 - 89)


Now we can simplify the parenthesis


x = 62 * 3


x = 186
