Solve 1.64*10^3=42*1000*x

$$1.64 \times 10 ^ { 3 } = 42 \times 1000 \times x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{41}{1050}\approx 0.039047619$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Calculate 10 to the power of 3 and get 1000.

$$1.64\times 1000=42\times 1000x$$

Multiply 1.64 and 1000 to get 1640.

$$1640=42\times 1000x$$

Multiply 42 and 1000 to get 42000.

$$1640=42000x$$

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

$$42000x=1640$$

Divide both sides by 42000.

$$x=\frac{1640}{42000}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{1640}{42000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 40.

$$x=\frac{41}{1050}$$
