50\left(x+13\right)+2850=57x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2850, the least common multiple of 57,50.
50x+650+2850=57x
Use the distributive property to multiply 50 by x+13.
50x+3500=57x
Add 650 and 2850 to get 3500.
50x+3500-57x=0
Subtract 57x from both sides.
-7x+3500=0
Combine 50x and -57x to get -7x.
-7x=-3500
Subtract 3500 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-3500}{-7}
Divide both sides by -7.
x=500
Divide -3500 by -7 to get 500.
