Ok from this equation we can simplify it in order we can find it easier
if we multiply ½ with (4x−5) that would be equal to (4x−5)/2
We will have two fractions with the same denominator (2) so we can just add the numerators together and the denominator wont change
so we will have [(4x−5)+5]/2=10
Lets multiply both sides with 2 and we will have
[(4x−5)+5]=20
4x-5+5=20
4x=20
divide both sides with 4
4x/4=20/4
x=5
