v-5+3v+12=7v-30
Variable v cannot be equal to any of the values 0,5 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by v\left(v-5\right), the least common multiple of v,v^{2}-5v.
4v-5+12=7v-30
Combine v and 3v to get 4v.
4v+7=7v-30
Add -5 and 12 to get 7.
4v+7-7v=-30
Subtract 7v from both sides.
-3v+7=-30
Combine 4v and -7v to get -3v.
-3v=-30-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
-3v=-37
Subtract 7 from -30 to get -37.
v=\frac{-37}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
v=\frac{37}{3}
Fraction \frac{-37}{-3} can be simplified to \frac{37}{3} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
