Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Fraction \frac{-5}{6} can be rewritten as -\frac{5}{6} by extracting the negative sign.

$$-\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{-4}{5}$$

Fraction \frac{-4}{5} can be rewritten as -\frac{4}{5} by extracting the negative sign.

$$-\frac{5}{6}x=-\frac{4}{5}$$

Multiply both sides by -\frac{6}{5}, the reciprocal of -\frac{5}{6}.

$$x=-\frac{4}{5}\left(-\frac{6}{5}\right)$$

Multiply -\frac{4}{5} times -\frac{6}{5} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$x=\frac{-4\left(-6\right)}{5\times 5}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-4\left(-6\right)}{5\times 5}.

$$x=\frac{24}{25}$$
