Would 4x -5 = 11 work?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
NO BECUASE YOU WOULD NEED THE STEPS OF MULTIPLICATION SO MABEY 4/X-5=11

You mean (x/4) - 5 = 11.
Perfect!

Put parenthesis around the (x/4), like I did to show that it is x divided by 4.

Add 5 to both sides, you get (x/4) = 16
Now multiply both sides by 4, you get x = 64.
(To undo divsion, you multiply; thats why I multiplied both sides by 4)
