Question

$$3x=\frac{4}{5}x$$

Solve for x

$x=0$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $\frac{4}{5}x$ from both sides.

$$3x-\frac{4}{5}x=0$$

Combine $3x$ and $-\frac{4}{5}x$ to get $\frac{11}{5}x$.

$$\frac{11}{5}x=0$$

Product of two numbers is equal to $0$ if at least one of them is $0$. Since $\frac{11}{5}$ is not equal to $0$, $x$ must be equal to $0$.

$$x=0$$
