Question

Find value of x :


`\tt54x + 1 = 55`
​

Answer 1

• x = 1

Explanation:

`\sf 54x+1=55`

First, subtract 1 from both sides.

• 
  `\sf 54x=55 - 1`
• 
  `\sf 54x=54`

Divide both sides by 54.

• 
  `\sf \cfrac{ 54x}{54} = \cfrac{54}{54}`
• 
  `\sf x = 1`

Answer 2

Explanation:

54x+1=55

54x=55-1

54x=54

x=54/54

∴x=1
