Solve 1500*25+1000*15=1500*20+1000*x

$$1500 \times 25+1000 \times 15=1500 \times 20+1000 \times x$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{45}{2} = 22\frac{1}{2} = 22.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 1500 and 25 to get 37500. Multiply 1000 and 15 to get 15000.

$$37500+15000=1500\times 20+1000x$$

Add 37500 and 15000 to get 52500.

$$52500=1500\times 20+1000x$$

Multiply 1500 and 20 to get 30000.

$$52500=30000+1000x$$

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

$$30000+1000x=52500$$

Subtract 30000 from both sides.

$$1000x=52500-30000$$

Subtract 30000 from 52500 to get 22500.

$$1000x=22500$$

Divide both sides by 1000.

$$x=\frac{22500}{1000}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{22500}{1000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 500.

$$x=\frac{45}{2}$$
