Solve for x 2x-5y=0

$2 x - 5 y = 0$

Step 1

Add $5 y$ to both sides of the equation.

$2 x = 5 y$

Step 2

Divide each term in $2 x = 5 y$ by $2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $2 x = 5 y$ by $2$ .

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5 y}{2}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{5 y}{2}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{5 y}{2}$
