Identify Equation: Identify the equation to solve.We have the equation −61x=5, where we need to find the value of x.
Isolate Variable: Isolate the variable x. To isolate x, we need to get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by −6, which is the reciprocal of −(61). Calculation: −6×(−(61)x)=−6×5
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication on both sides.On the left side, −6 multiplied by −(61) will cancel out the fraction and leave us with x. On the right side, −6 multiplied by 5 gives us −30.Calculation: x=−30
