0.1x+60-0.3x=50
Use the distributive property to multiply 200-x by 0.3.
-0.2x+60=50
Combine 0.1x and -0.3x to get -0.2x.
-0.2x=50-60
Subtract 60 from both sides.
-0.2x=-10
Subtract 60 from 50 to get -10.
x=\frac{-10}{-0.2}
Divide both sides by -0.2.
x=\frac{-100}{-2}
Expand \frac{-10}{-0.2} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=50
Divide -100 by -2 to get 50.
