Solve (x-30000)5%=600

$$( x - 30000 ) 5 \% = 600$$

Solve for x

$$x=42000$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{5}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$\left(x-30000\right)\times \frac{1}{20}=600$$

Use the distributive property to multiply x-30000 by \frac{1}{20}.

$$x\times \frac{1}{20}-30000\times \frac{1}{20}=600$$

Multiply -30000 and \frac{1}{20} to get \frac{-30000}{20}.

$$x\times \frac{1}{20}+\frac{-30000}{20}=600$$

Divide -30000 by 20 to get -1500.

$$x\times \frac{1}{20}-1500=600$$

Add 1500 to both sides.

$$x\times \frac{1}{20}=600+1500$$

Add 600 and 1500 to get 2100.

$$x\times \frac{1}{20}=2100$$

Multiply both sides by 20, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{20}.

$$x=2100\times 20$$

Multiply 2100 and 20 to get 42000.

$$x=42000$$
