72-5x=3\times 3-\frac{3}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Multiply 8 and 9 to get 72.
72-5x=9-\frac{3}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.
72-5x=\frac{495}{55}-\frac{3}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Convert 9 to fraction \frac{495}{55}.
72-5x=\frac{495-3}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Since \frac{495}{55} and \frac{3}{55} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
72-5x=\frac{492}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Subtract 3 from 495 to get 492.
-5x=\frac{492}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}-72
Subtract 72 from both sides.
-5x=\frac{492}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}-\frac{3960}{55}
Convert 72 to fraction \frac{3960}{55}.
-5x=\frac{492-3960}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Since \frac{492}{55} and \frac{3960}{55} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
-5x=-\frac{3468}{55}+9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}
Subtract 3960 from 492 to get -3468.
-5x=9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}-\frac{3468}{55}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}-\frac{3468}{55}}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=\frac{9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}-\frac{3468}{55}}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
x=-\frac{9999666699996666\sqrt{3191}}{5}+\frac{3468}{275}
