    Solve for x:

    25 x - 6 = 5 x + 24

    Subtract 5 x from both sides:

    (25 x - 5 x) - 6 = (5 x - 5 x) + 24

    25 x - 5 x = 20 x:

    20 x - 6 = (5 x - 5 x) + 24

    5 x - 5 x = 0:

    20 x - 6 = 24

    Add 6 to both sides:

    20 x + (6 - 6) = 6 + 24

    6 - 6 = 0:

    20 x = 24 + 6

    24 + 6 = 30:

    20 x = 30

    Divide both sides of 20 x = 30 by 20:

    (20 x) / 20 = 30/20

    20/20 = 1:

    x = 30/20

    The gcd of 30 and 20 is 10, so 30/20 = (10*3) / (10*2) = 10/10*3/2 = 3/2:

    Answer: x = 3/2

    25x - 6 = 24 + 5x

    First we collect terms

    20x = 30

    Now we divide by 20

    x = 30/20

    x = 1.5
