Solve x+25%x=90

$$x+25 \% x=90$$

Solve for x

$$x=72$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

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

$$x+\frac{1}{4}x=90$$

Combine x and \frac{1}{4}x to get \frac{5}{4}x.

$$\frac{5}{4}x=90$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{4}{5}, the reciprocal of \frac{5}{4}.

$$x=90\times \frac{4}{5}$$

Express 90\times \frac{4}{5} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{90\times 4}{5}$$

Multiply 90 and 4 to get 360.

$$x=\frac{360}{5}$$

Divide 360 by 5 to get 72.

$$x=72$$
