\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{2}{5}x+480-60=420
Reduce the fraction \frac{6}{15} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
\frac{4}{5}x+480-60=420
Combine \frac{2}{5}x and \frac{2}{5}x to get \frac{4}{5}x.
\frac{4}{5}x+420=420
Subtract 60 from 480 to get 420.
\frac{4}{5}x=420-420
Subtract 420 from both sides.
\frac{4}{5}x=0
Subtract 420 from 420 to get 0.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since \frac{4}{5} is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
