    Distribute

    remember a (b+c) = ab+ac

    we can actually divide both sides by x

    5 (4x+8) = 4 (6x-10)

    distribute

    20x+40=24x-40

    minus 20x both sides

    40=4x-40

    add 40 both sides

    80=4x

    divide by 4

    20=x

    5 (4x+8) = 4 (6x-10)

    distribute 5 and 4

    20x+40=24x-40

    Add 40 to each side

    20x+80=24x

    Subtract 20x from each side

    80=4x

    Divide by 4 on each side

    x=20, is your answer
