\left(\frac{5}{5}+\frac{4}{5}\right)x=x
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{5}{5}.
\frac{5+4}{5}x=x
Since \frac{5}{5} and \frac{4}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{9}{5}x=x
Add 5 and 4 to get 9.
\frac{9}{5}x-x=0
Subtract x from both sides.
\frac{4}{5}x=0
Combine \frac{9}{5}x and -x to get \frac{4}{5}x.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since \frac{4}{5} is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
