What is the value o f x in the equation 1/5x-2/3y=30 when y is 15?

In this question, two important information's are already provided. Based on them the solution can be reached. It is already given that the value of y is 15. Now coming to the equation we get:

(1/5) x - (2/3) y = 30

(1/5) x - (2/3) * 15 = 30

(1/5) x - (2 * 5) = 30

(1/5) x - 10 = 30

(1/5) x = 30 + 10

(1/5) x = 40

x = 40 * 5

= 200

So the value of x is 200. I hope you have got the answer you were looking for. In future follow this procedure to solve these kind of problems.
