Solve 28(x-2/7)=20

$$28(x- \frac{ 2 }{ 7 } )=20$$

Solve for x

$$x=1$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 28.

$$x-\frac{2}{7}=\frac{20}{28}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{20}{28} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$x-\frac{2}{7}=\frac{5}{7}$$

Add \frac{2}{7} to both sides.

$$x=\frac{5}{7}+\frac{2}{7}$$

Since \frac{5}{7} and \frac{2}{7} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x=\frac{5+2}{7}$$

Add 5 and 2 to get 7.

$$x=\frac{7}{7}$$

Divide 7 by 7 to get 1.

$$x=1$$
