6x-3=x/5+26

Academic Mathematics NCERT Class 7

$6 x-3=\frac{x}{5}+26$

Add 3 to both sides

$6 x-3+3=\frac{x}{5}+26+3$

Simplify

$6 x=\frac{x}{5}+29$

Multiply both sides by 5

$6 x \cdot 5=\frac{x}{5} \cdot 5+29 \cdot 5$

Simplify

$30 x=x+145$

Subtract $x$ from both sides

$30 x-x=x+145-x$

Simplify

$29 x=145$

Divide both sides by 29

$\frac{29 x}{29}=\frac{145}{29}$

$x=5$
