Solve 1*10^-14=(5*10^-3)x

$$1 \times { 10 }^{ -14 } =(5 \times { 10 }^{ -3 } )x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{1}{500000000000}=2 \cdot 10^{-12}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Calculate 10 to the power of -14 and get \frac{1}{100000000000000}.

$$1\times \frac{1}{100000000000000}=5\times 10^{-3}x$$

Multiply 1 and \frac{1}{100000000000000} to get \frac{1}{100000000000000}.

$$\frac{1}{100000000000000}=5\times 10^{-3}x$$

Calculate 10 to the power of -3 and get \frac{1}{1000}.

$$\frac{1}{100000000000000}=5\times \frac{1}{1000}x$$

Multiply 5 and \frac{1}{1000} to get \frac{1}{200}.

$$\frac{1}{100000000000000}=\frac{1}{200}x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$\frac{1}{200}x=\frac{1}{100000000000000}$$

Multiply both sides by 200, the reciprocal of \frac{1}{200}.

$$x=\frac{1}{100000000000000}\times 200$$

Multiply \frac{1}{100000000000000} and 200 to get \frac{1}{500000000000}.

$$x=\frac{1}{500000000000}$$
