Solve 5/16164+2255/161=3+x

$$\frac{ 5 }{ 161 } 64+225 \frac{ 5 }{ 161 } = 3+x$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{36067}{161} = 224\frac{3}{161} \approx 224.01863354$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 161.

$$5\times 64+225\times 161+5=483+161x$$

Multiply 5 and 64 to get 320.

$$320+225\times 161+5=483+161x$$

Multiply 225 and 161 to get 36225.

$$320+36225+5=483+161x$$

Add 320 and 36225 to get 36545.

$$36545+5=483+161x$$

Add 36545 and 5 to get 36550.

$$36550=483+161x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$483+161x=36550$$

Subtract 483 from both sides.

$$161x=36550-483$$

Subtract 483 from 36550 to get 36067.

$$161x=36067$$

Divide both sides by 161.

$$x=\frac{36067}{161}$$
