If abx - 5 = 0, what is x in terms of a and b?

Here we want to have x on one side of equation so, we put number 5 on right side of equation:abx=5then we divide both sides by ab to obtain x on left side:Result:x=[tex] \frac{5}{ab} [/tex]

[tex]abx - 5 = 0[/tex][tex]abx - 5 +5= 0+5[/tex][tex]abx=5[/tex][tex] \frac{abx}{ab} = \frac{5}{ab} [/tex][tex]x= \frac{5}{ab} [/tex]
