4000 | ÷ | x | − | 2 | = | 4000 | ÷ | ( | 5 4 | x | ) |
Multiply both sides of the equation by: | x | , | ( | 5 4 | × | 1 | ) |
4000 | ( | 5 4 | × | 1 | ) | − | 2 | x | ( | 5 4 | × | 1 | ) | = | 4000 | × | 1 |
4000 | × | 5 4 | × | 1 | − | 2 | x | ( | 5 4 | × | 1 | ) | = | 4000 | × | 1 |
5000 | − | 2 | x | ( | 5 4 | × | 1 | ) | = | 4000 |
5000 | − | 2 | x | × | 5 4 | × | 1 | = | 4000 |
5000 | − | 5 2 | x | = | 4000 |
- | 5 2 | x | = | 4000 | − | 5000 |
- | 5 2 | x | = | - | 1000 |
1000 | = | 5 2 | x |
5 2 | x | = | 1000 |
x | = | 1000 | ÷ | 5 2 |
= | 1000 | × | 2 5 |
= | 200 | × | 2 |
x | = | 400 |
