Solve (124div31)-θ=(124div20)-2θ

$$(124 \div 31)- \theta =(124 \div 20)-2 \theta$$

Solve for θ

$$\theta =\frac{11}{5}=2.2$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide 124 by 31 to get 4.

$$4-\theta =\frac{124}{20}-2\theta$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{124}{20} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$4-\theta =\frac{31}{5}-2\theta$$

Add 2\theta to both sides.

$$4-\theta +2\theta =\frac{31}{5}$$

Combine -\theta and 2\theta to get \theta .

$$4+\theta =\frac{31}{5}$$

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$$\theta =\frac{31}{5}-4$$

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{20}{5}.

$$\theta =\frac{31}{5}-\frac{20}{5}$$

Since \frac{31}{5} and \frac{20}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\theta =\frac{31-20}{5}$$

Subtract 20 from 31 to get 11.

$$\theta =\frac{11}{5}$$
