Solve 0.025x+5.183=0.01x+5.177

$$0.025 x + 5.183 = 0.01 x + 5.177$$

Solve for x

$$x=-0.4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.01x from both sides.

$$0.025x+5.183-0.01x=5.177$$

Combine 0.025x and -0.01x to get 0.015x.

$$0.015x+5.183=5.177$$

Subtract 5.183 from both sides.

$$0.015x=5.177-5.183$$

Subtract 5.183 from 5.177 to get -0.006.

$$0.015x=-0.006$$

Divide both sides by 0.015.

$$x=\frac{-0.006}{0.015}$$

Expand \frac{-0.006}{0.015} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.

$$x=\frac{-6}{15}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-6}{15} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$x=-\frac{2}{5}$$
