Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{75}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 25.

$$\frac{3}{4}x-5=22$$

Add 5 to both sides.

$$\frac{3}{4}x=22+5$$

Add 22 and 5 to get 27.

$$\frac{3}{4}x=27$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{4}{3}, the reciprocal of \frac{3}{4}.

$$x=27\times \frac{4}{3}$$

Express 27\times \frac{4}{3} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{27\times 4}{3}$$

Multiply 27 and 4 to get 108.

$$x=\frac{108}{3}$$

Divide 108 by 3 to get 36.

$$x=36$$
