Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$137.2=13.72x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$13.72x=137.2$$

Divide both sides by 13.72.

$$x=\frac{137.2}{13.72}$$

Expand \frac{137.2}{13.72} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{13720}{1372}$$

Divide 13720 by 1372 to get 10.

$$x=10$$
