Answer:
x = 3 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's go over the order of operations.
P: Parentheses
E: Exponents
M/D: Multiplication/division (in order of appearance)
A/S: Addition/Subtraction (in order of appearance)
100 = 5*(4 + 2)
Since there are values in parentheses, solve those first: 100 .= 5x(6).
Next, multiply 5x by 6. 100 = 30x.
Finally, divide each side by 30 to find the value of x. 3 1/3 = x
Therefore, the value of x is 3 1/3.
(Note: this is assuming the term "x" is a variable, and not the multiplication sign, *.)
