Solve 0.062+0.278x=0.832x+0.026

$$0.062+0.278x=0.832x+0.026$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{18}{277}\approx 0.064981949$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.832x from both sides.

$$0.062+0.278x-0.832x=0.026$$

Combine 0.278x and -0.832x to get -0.554x.

$$0.062-0.554x=0.026$$

Subtract 0.062 from both sides.

$$-0.554x=0.026-0.062$$

Subtract 0.062 from 0.026 to get -0.036.

$$-0.554x=-0.036$$

Divide both sides by -0.554.

$$x=\frac{-0.036}{-0.554}$$

Expand \frac{-0.036}{-0.554} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.

$$x=\frac{-36}{-554}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-36}{-554} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -2.

$$x=\frac{18}{277}$$
