x_{5}\times 55-4x=5
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-4x=5-x_{5}\times 55
Subtract x_{5}\times 55 from both sides.
-4x=5-55x_{5}
Multiply -1 and 55 to get -55.
\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{5-55x_{5}}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
x=\frac{5-55x_{5}}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
x=\frac{55x_{5}-5}{4}
Divide 5-55x_{5} by -4.
x_{5}\times 55-4x=5
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x_{5}\times 55=5+4x
Add 4x to both sides.
55x_{5}=4x+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{55x_{5}}{55}=\frac{4x+5}{55}
Divide both sides by 55.
x_{5}=\frac{4x+5}{55}
Dividing by 55 undoes the multiplication by 55.
x_{5}=\frac{4x}{55}+\frac{1}{11}
Divide 5+4x by 55.
