Answer:

25 1/2 × 5 - 3 = 5x

51/2 × 5 - 3    = 5x

255/2 - 3       = 5x

255/2 - 6/2   = 10x/2

255 - 6          = 10x

249               = 10x

x                    = 249/10 = 24.9

The value of x in the equation [tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex]  is x=24.9

What is the value of x in the equation [tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex]?

Given:

  • An equation is given as  [tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex].

Find:

  • The value of x.

Solution:

The given equation is [tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex]

Now, solving the equation, we get;

[tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{51}{2} *5 - 3 =5x[/tex]

Now, multiplying the 51/2 with 5, we get;

[tex]\frac{255}{2} - 3 = 5x[/tex]

Now, we will take lcm and we get;

[tex]\frac{255-6}{2} = 5x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{249}{2} = 5x[/tex]

Now, multiplying with 2 on both sides of the equation, we get;

249 = 10x

Now, dividing by 10 into both sides of the equation, we get;

x = 24.9

Hence, the value of x in the equation [tex]25\frac{1}{2} * 5 -3 = 5x[/tex] is x=24.9
