The equation is asking you to solve for the value of x.
To solve for x, you can use algebraic manipulation and the concept of equality to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Yes, you can simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by the common denominator of 120x. This will result in the simplified equation of 23 = 24x.
You can eliminate the fractions by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the fraction. In this case, you would multiply by 5 on both sides to eliminate the fraction 1/5. This will result in the equation 23/5 = 24x.
The final solution for x is 23/120, or approximately 0.1917.
