Answer:

45

Explanation:


(x)/(5) = (1)/(5) x

First, we subtract 7 from each side


(1)/(5) x = 9

Next, we find the reciprocal of "1/5" and multiply that number on both sides


(5)/(1) * (1)/(5) x = (9)/(1) *(5)/(1)

Now, we multiply.


x = 45

Solving this equation, we obtain:

X/5 + 7 = 16 multiplying everything by 5

X + 35 = 80

X = 45
