Solve 5x+6/7=9

$$5 x + \frac { 6 } { 7 } = 9$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{57}{35} = 1\frac{22}{35} \approx 1.628571429$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract \frac{6}{7} from both sides.

$$5x=9-\frac{6}{7}$$

Convert 9 to fraction \frac{63}{7}.

$$5x=\frac{63}{7}-\frac{6}{7}$$

Since \frac{63}{7} and \frac{6}{7} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$5x=\frac{63-6}{7}$$

Subtract 6 from 63 to get 57.

$$5x=\frac{57}{7}$$

Divide both sides by 5.

$$x=\frac{\frac{57}{7}}{5}$$

Express \frac{\frac{57}{7}}{5} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{57}{7\times 5}$$

Multiply 7 and 5 to get 35.

$$x=\frac{57}{35}$$
