x/5(10-11)=2 according to P.E.M.D.A.S. solve 10-11 first you should get -1 so your new equation will be x/5(-1)=2 then add 1 to both sides leaving you with x/5=3

lastly multiply both sides with 5, yous final answer should be x=15

x/5(10-11) Remember PEMDAS and remember to isolate the variable;)

1. x/5(10-11) =2 (subtract)

2. x/5 * -1 =2 (add +1 to each side)

3. x/5= 3 (multiply both sides by five)

4. x=15
