Solve x=80-100/10-8*10/80

$$x= \frac{ 80-100 }{ 10-8 } \times \frac{ 10 }{ 80 }$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{5}{4} = -1\frac{1}{4} = -1.25$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 100 from 80 to get -20.

$$x=\frac{-20}{10-8}\times \frac{10}{80}$$

Subtract 8 from 10 to get 2.

$$x=\frac{-20}{2}\times \frac{10}{80}$$

Divide -20 by 2 to get -10.

$$x=-10\times \frac{10}{80}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{10}{80} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 10.

$$x=-10\times \frac{1}{8}$$

Multiply -10 and \frac{1}{8} to get \frac{-10}{8}.

$$x=\frac{-10}{8}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-10}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

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

Assign x

$$x≔-\frac{5}{4}$$
