Solve 12*1-4x=0.5*0.4*5

$$12 \cdot 1-4x = 0.5 \cdot 0.4 \cdot 5$$

Solve for x

$$x=2.75$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 12 and 1 to get 12.

$$12-4x=0.5\times 0.4\times 5$$

Multiply 0.5 and 0.4 to get 0.2.

$$12-4x=0.2\times 5$$

Multiply 0.2 and 5 to get 1.

$$12-4x=1$$

Subtract 12 from both sides.

$$-4x=1-12$$

Subtract 12 from 1 to get -11.

$$-4x=-11$$

Divide both sides by -4.

$$x=\frac{-11}{-4}$$

Fraction \frac{-11}{-4} can be simplified to \frac{11}{4} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$x=\frac{11}{4}$$
