To solve the equation \( 98x - 48 = 75 \), follow these steps:
Add 48 to both sides: \[ 98x - 48 + 48 = 75 + 48 \] This simplifies to: \[ 98x = 123 \]
Divide both sides by 98: \[ x = \frac{123}{98} \]
Simplify the fraction if possible: The fraction \( \frac{123}{98} \) cannot be simplified further since 123 and 98 do not have any common factors other than 1.
Thus, the solution is: \[ x = \frac{123}{98} \approx 1.2551 \] (if you need a decimal approximation).
