How do you find X over 5 greater than 10?

Answer 1

To find the answer, you can set up the problem like this:

x/5 > 10

Now, you want to find x, so you need to have it on a side of the > sign by itself. To do that, you need to multiply both sides of the equation by 5.

5 times x/5 is 5x/5. Since the numerator 5 is the same as the denominator 5, they equal 1. You are left with x.

On the other side of the > sign, multiply 10 by 5 and you get 50.

The equation is now x > 50 and that is the answer.
