5 + 1/5x=5 what is x

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x/5 + 5 = 5

Put each term in x/5 + 5 over the common denominator 5: x/5 + 5 = x/5 + 25/5:

x/5 + 25/5 = 5

x/5 + 25/5 = (x + 25) / 5:

(x + 25) / 5 = 5

Multiply both sides of (x + 25) / 5 = 5 by 5:

(5 (x + 25)) / 5 = 5*5

(5 (x + 25)) / 5 = 5/5 * (x + 25) = x + 25:

x + 25 = 5*5

5*5 = 25:

x + 25 = 25

Subtract 25 from both sides:

x + (25 - 25) = 25 - 25

25 - 25 = 0:

x = 25 - 25

25 - 25 = 0:

Answer: x = 0

Answer: (distributive property)

20.

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 or 1

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 or 1

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 or 1

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 or 1

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 or 1

= 5 (total sums)

The total number of 1/5's = 25

20 + 5 = 25

25 - 5 = 20
