Question

How do i solve 51/2x-7=62

Answer 1

51/2x-7=62

1. Multiply both sides by 2x-7

`(51)/(2x-7)` ×(2x-7) = 62(2x-7)

2. Switch sides

62(2x-7) = 51

3. Divide each side by 62

`(62(2x-7))/(62)` =
`(51)/(62)`

4. Simplify

2x-7 = 51/62

5. Add 7 on both sides

2x-7+7 = (51/62)+7

6. Simplify

2x = 485/62

7. Divide both sides by 2

2x/2= 485/62/2

x= 485/124
