\frac{1}{5}=10+x
Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.
10+x=\frac{1}{5}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=\frac{1}{5}-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
x=\frac{1}{5}-\frac{50}{5}
Convert 10 to fraction \frac{50}{5}.
x=\frac{1-50}{5}
Since \frac{1}{5} and \frac{50}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
x=-\frac{49}{5}
Subtract 50 from 1 to get -49.
