65+35x=61x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
65+35x-61x=0
Subtract 61x from both sides.
65-26x=0
Combine 35x and -61x to get -26x.
-26x=-65
Subtract 65 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-65}{-26}
Divide both sides by -26.
x=\frac{5}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-65}{-26} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -13.
