Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "17.92" was replaced by "(1792/100)".
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
7-(x/(1792/100))=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
448
Simplify ———
25
Equation at the end of step 1 :
448
7 - ——— = 0
25
Step 2 :
448
Divide x by ———
25
Equation at the end of step 2 :
25x
7 - ——— = 0
448
Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 448 as the denominator :
7 7 • 448
7 = — = ———————
1 448
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
7 • 448 - (25x) 3136 - 25x
——————————————— = ——————————
448 448
Equation at the end of step 3 :
3136 - 25x
—————————— = 0
448
Step 4 :
When a fraction equals zero :
4.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
3136-25x
———————— • 448 = 0 • 448
448
Now, on the left hand side, the 448 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
3136-25x = 0
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
4.2 Solve : -25x+3136 = 0
Subtract 3136 from both sides of the equation :
-25x = -3136
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 25x = 3136
Divide both sides of the equation by 25:
x = 3136/25 = 125.440
One solution was found :
x = 3136/25 = 125.440How did we do?
