Solve.
-20 = 5
___ x
6

x = ? (You have to put what "x" equals)

Answer 1

This is how you solve your equation;

-20 = 5/6x

-20 ÷ (-5/6) = x (did the inverse operation of x)

-24 = x or x = -24

to check the answer just substitute the value of x in the equation;

-20 = 5/6x

-20 = 5/6(-24)

-20 = -20

hope that helps:D

Answer 2

-20=5/6x
5/6x=-20
5x=20 multiplied by 6
5x=120
x=120 divided by 5
x=24
