$$x = \frac{865}{26} = 33\frac{7}{26} \approx 33.269230769$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

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

$$0.52x+14.7=32$$

Subtract 14.7 from both sides.

$$0.52x=32-14.7$$

Subtract 14.7 from 32 to get 17.3.

$$0.52x=17.3$$

Divide both sides by 0.52.

$$x=\frac{17.3}{0.52}$$

Expand \frac{17.3}{0.52} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{1730}{52}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{1730}{52} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=\frac{865}{26}$$
