Solve the following equation
140+0.02x=0.03x
Solve for x
140 + 0.02x = 0.03x
Group variables
Group our variables 0.02x and 0.03x
subtract 0.03x from both sides
0.02x + 140 - 0.03x = 0.03x - 0.03x
Cancel 0.03x on the right side:
-0.01x + 140 = 0
Divide each side by 140
| 140x | |
| 140 |
| = |
| 0.02 |
| 140 |
Group constants
Group our constants 140 and 0.
subtract 140 from both sides
-0.01x + 140 - 140 = 0 - 140
Cancel 140 on the left side:
-0.01x = -140
Divide each side of the equation by -0.01
| -0.01x | |
| -0.01 |
| = |
| -140 |
| -0.01 |
x = 14000
Final Answer
x = 14000
