\left(8\times 5+2\right)x-20x=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
\left(40+2\right)x-20x=0
Multiply 8 and 5 to get 40.
42x-20x=0
Add 40 and 2 to get 42.
22x=0
Combine 42x and -20x to get 22x.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since 22 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
