Pre-Algebra Examples

5 x = 3

$5 x = 3$

Step 1

Divide each term in

5 x = 3

$5 x = 3$ by

5

$5$ .

\frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{3}{5}

$\frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{3}{5}$

Step 2.1.1

Cancel the common factor.

\frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{3}{5}

$\frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{3}{5}$

Step 2.1.2

Divide

x

$x$ by

1

$1$ .

x = \frac{3}{5}

$x = \frac{3}{5}$

x = \frac{3}{5}

$x = \frac{3}{5}$

x = \frac{3}{5}

$x = \frac{3}{5}$

Step 3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

x = \frac{3}{5}

$x = \frac{3}{5}$

Decimal Form:

x = 0.6

$x = 0.6$
