x - 27/5 = 5/12 <----
+ 27/5 + 27/5
Thus x = 349/60.

(5 x)/5-(27)/5 = 5/12
(5 x)/5-(27)/5 = (5 x-27)/5:
(5 x-27)/5 = 5/12
(5 (5 x-27))/5 = 5×5/12
5×5/12 = (5×5)/12:
(5 (5 x-27))/5 = (5×5)/12
(5 (5 x-27))/5 = 5/5×(5 x-27) = 5 x - 27
5 x - 27 = (5×5)/12
5×5 = 25:
5 x-27 = 25/12

OpenStudy (charlotte123):
5 x + (27-27) = 25/12+27
27 - 27 = 0
5 x = 25/12+27
5 x = 25/12+(12×27)/12
12×27 = 324
5 x = 25/12 + 324/12
25/12 + 324/12 = (25+324)/12:
5 x = (25+324)/12
25+324 = 349
5 x = 349/12

x = 349/(12×5)
12×5 = 60
