Solve 16800=x(1+0.03*5)

$$16800=x(1+0.03 \times 5)$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{336000}{23} = 14608\frac{16}{23} \approx 14608.695652174$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 0.03 and 5 to get 0.15.

$$16800=x\left(1+0.15\right)$$

Add 1 and 0.15 to get 1.15.

$$16800=x\times 1.15$$

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

$$x\times 1.15=16800$$

Divide both sides by 1.15.

$$x=\frac{16800}{1.15}$$

Expand \frac{16800}{1.15} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{1680000}{115}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{1680000}{115} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$x=\frac{336000}{23}$$
