92+x\times 159=175x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
92+x\times 159-175x=0
Subtract 175x from both sides.
92-16x=0
Combine x\times 159 and -175x to get -16x.
-16x=-92
Subtract 92 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-92}{-16}
Divide both sides by -16.
x=\frac{23}{4}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-92}{-16} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -4.
