-25=25\left(3x-13\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{13}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3x-13.
-25=75x-325
Use the distributive property to multiply 25 by 3x-13.
75x-325=-25
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
75x=-25+325
Add 325 to both sides.
75x=300
Add -25 and 325 to get 300.
x=\frac{300}{75}
Divide both sides by 75.
x=4
Divide 300 by 75 to get 4.
