Answer:

20

Explanation:

3x/4 - 5 = 10

3x/4 = 10 + 5

3x/4 = 15

3x = 15 * 4

3x = 60

x = 60/3

x = 20

Answer:

x = 20

Explanation:

Hello!

What we do to one side we have to do to the other

3x/4 - 5 = 10

Add 5 to both sides

3x/4 = 15

Multiply both sides by 4

3x = 60

Divide both sides by 3

x = 20

The answer is x = 20

Hope this helps!
