You asked:

Solve the equation 125100x=335(x16)\frac{125}{100} x = 3 \cdot \frac{3}{5} \left(x - 16\right) for the variable xx.

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: x=57611=52.36x = \frac{576}{11} = 52.\overline{36}


5x4=9x5144511x20=1445x=57611\begin{aligned}\frac{5 x}{4} &= \frac{9 x}{5} - \frac{144}{5}\\- \frac{11 x}{20} &= - \frac{144}{5}\\x &= \frac{576}{11}\end{aligned}
