9\left(x+100\right)=x\times 100
Variable x cannot be equal to -100 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x+100.
9x+900=x\times 100
Use the distributive property to multiply 9 by x+100.
9x+900-x\times 100=0
Subtract x\times 100 from both sides.
-91x+900=0
Combine 9x and -x\times 100 to get -91x.
-91x=-900
Subtract 900 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-900}{-91}
Divide both sides by -91.
x=\frac{900}{91}
Fraction \frac{-900}{-91} can be simplified to \frac{900}{91} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
