Solve 2/3x+4/5=0

$$\frac { 2 } { 3 } x + \frac { 4 } { 5 } = 0$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{6}{5} = -1\frac{1}{5} = -1.2$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract \frac{4}{5} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$\frac{2}{3}x=-\frac{4}{5}$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{3}{2}, the reciprocal of \frac{2}{3}.

$$x=-\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{3}{2}$$

Multiply -\frac{4}{5} times \frac{3}{2} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$x=\frac{-4\times 3}{5\times 2}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-4\times 3}{5\times 2}.

$$x=\frac{-12}{10}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-12}{10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

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