Answer: 105

Explanation: you’ll combine like terms being 5/7x and 1/5x with will give you a sum of 32/35 then you would divide it on both sides leaving you with x=96/36/35 leaving you with x=105. To re check it you can insert x values in the equation and you’ll end up with 96=96 which proves the answer is right.
