Answer:


x=5a+5g

Explanation:

We have been given an equation
(x)/(5)-g=a. We are asked to solve the given equation for x.

Add
g on both sides of equation:


(x)/(5)-g+g=a+g


(x)/(5)=a+g

Multiply both sides by 5:


(x)/(5)*5=5*(a+g)


x=5(a+g)

Use distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac:


x=5a+5g

Therefore, our required equation would be
x=5a+5g.

x/5 - g = a
x/5 = a+g
x = 5(a+g)
