Solve (24+x)*9/100=72/25

$$\frac { ( 24 + x ) \times 9 } { 100 } = \frac { 72 } { 25 }$$

Solve for x

$$x=8$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by 100.

$$\left(24+x\right)\times 9=\frac{72}{25}\times 100$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 24+x by 9.

$$216+9x=\frac{72}{25}\times 100$$

Express \frac{72}{25}\times 100 as a single fraction.

$$216+9x=\frac{72\times 100}{25}$$

Multiply 72 and 100 to get 7200.

$$216+9x=\frac{7200}{25}$$

Divide 7200 by 25 to get 288.

$$216+9x=288$$

Subtract 216 from both sides.

$$9x=288-216$$

Subtract 216 from 288 to get 72.

$$9x=72$$

Divide both sides by 9.

$$x=\frac{72}{9}$$

Divide 72 by 9 to get 8.

$$x=8$$
