1635\times 29-x=0.09x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
47415-x=0.09x
Multiply 1635 and 29 to get 47415.
47415-x-0.09x=0
Subtract 0.09x from both sides.
47415-1.09x=0
Combine -x and -0.09x to get -1.09x.
-1.09x=-47415
Subtract 47415 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-47415}{-1.09}
Divide both sides by -1.09.
x=\frac{-4741500}{-109}
Expand \frac{-47415}{-1.09} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
x=43500
Divide -4741500 by -109 to get 43500.
