Solve 5*44=2/310-x

$$5 \times 44 = \frac { 2 } { 3 } 10 - x$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{640}{3} = -213\frac{1}{3} \approx -213.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 5 and 44 to get 220.

$$220=\frac{2}{3}\times 10-x$$

Express \frac{2}{3}\times 10 as a single fraction.

$$220=\frac{2\times 10}{3}-x$$

Multiply 2 and 10 to get 20.

$$220=\frac{20}{3}-x$$

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

$$\frac{20}{3}-x=220$$

Subtract \frac{20}{3} from both sides.

$$-x=220-\frac{20}{3}$$

Convert 220 to fraction \frac{660}{3}.

$$-x=\frac{660}{3}-\frac{20}{3}$$

Since \frac{660}{3} and \frac{20}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$-x=\frac{660-20}{3}$$

Subtract 20 from 660 to get 640.

$$-x=\frac{640}{3}$$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$$x=-\frac{640}{3}$$
