Answer:
x=1/3

Add 5 to both sides


60x-5+5=15+5\\60x=20

Divide both sides by 60


60x/60=20/60\\x=1/3

Answer:

Explanation:

What your gonna do is add five to 15. then you will have the equation: 60x=20. Then what your gonna do is divide each side by 60, so do 60 divided by 60 and 20 divided by 60, then you get your answer to be 0.3, which then converts to 1/3. So you answer would be X = 1/3.

Hope this helped!
