    (5x + 7) (1/5) = (8 - 6x) (1/5)

    Simplify both sides. In order to do this you need to distribute 1/5 in each expression.

    (5x) (1/5) + (7) (1/5) = (8) (1/5) + ( - 6x) (1/5)

    x + 7/5 = 8/5 + - 6 / 5 x

    x + 7/5 = - 6 / 5 x + 8 / 5

    Now you need to add (-6/5) x to both sides. This leaves you with

    (5/11) x + 7/5 = 8 / 5

    Now subtract 7/5 from both sides.

    (5/11) x = 1 / 5

    Divide both sides by 5/11

    x=1/11
