16x-10-\frac{1}{2}x=0
Subtract \frac{1}{2}x from both sides.
\frac{31}{2}x-10=0
Combine 16x and -\frac{1}{2}x to get \frac{31}{2}x.
\frac{31}{2}x=10
Add 10 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=10\times \frac{2}{31}
Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{31}, the reciprocal of \frac{31}{2}.
x=\frac{10\times 2}{31}
Express 10\times \frac{2}{31} as a single fraction.
x=\frac{20}{31}
Multiply 10 and 2 to get 20.
