$$599+199+1399+(157 \cdot 299)+499x = 2986$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{46154}{499} = -92\frac{246}{499} \approx -92.492985972$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 599 and 199 to get 798.

$$798+1399+157\times 299+499x=2986$$

Add 798 and 1399 to get 2197.

$$2197+157\times 299+499x=2986$$

Multiply 157 and 299 to get 46943.

$$2197+46943+499x=2986$$

Add 2197 and 46943 to get 49140.

$$49140+499x=2986$$

Subtract 49140 from both sides.

$$499x=2986-49140$$

Subtract 49140 from 2986 to get -46154.

$$499x=-46154$$

Divide both sides by 499.

$$x=\frac{-46154}{499}$$

Fraction \frac{-46154}{499} can be rewritten as -\frac{46154}{499} by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{46154}{499}$$
