18\times 10=5x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 18x, the least common multiple of x,18.
180=5x
Multiply 18 and 10 to get 180.
5x=180
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=\frac{180}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=36
Divide 180 by 5 to get 36.
