150+25x=x\times 75
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
150+25x-x\times 75=0
Subtract x\times 75 from both sides.
150-50x=0
Combine 25x and -x\times 75 to get -50x.
-50x=-150
Subtract 150 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-150}{-50}
Divide both sides by -50.
x=3
Divide -150 by -50 to get 3.
