Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Exact Form:
x=1738/75
Decimal Form:
x=23.173
Mixed Number Form:
x=23 13/75

Answer:

x=1738/75

Explanation:

985-75x=9-860+98

simplify each side

985-75x=-753

move x over

985=75x-753

move 753 over

75x=1738

divide by 75

x=1738/75

note- are you sure these are the right numbers?
