Question

whats x-2 over 5 equals 4x+2 over 25

Answer 1

I think this is what you want \[\frac{x-2}{5} = \frac{4x+2}{25}\]

----------------------------------------------------------------------

If you want to solve for x, multiply by 25 on both sides to get
\[\frac{25(x-2)}{5} = \frac{25(4x+2)}{25}\]

Divide out common factors of the numerator and denominator on each side of the equation:
\[5(x-2)=(4x+2)\]

Multiply the left side of the equation out:
\[5x-10 = 4x+2\]

Subtract 4x from both sides:
\[x-10 = 2\]

Add 10 to both sides to get:
\[x=12\]
