60-5x
If \(50x = 500\), then:
Divide both sides by \(50\):
\(\frac{50x}{50} = \frac{500}{50}\)
This simplifies to:
\( x = 10\)

Hmm. . . I'm not sure why you changed your question to \(60-5x\). Anyways, you can't solve for \(x\) in this situation; as the equation isn't complete. But you can simplify it into:
\(\frac{60-5x}{5}= 12-x\)
Not so sure you can do that simplification of a math EXPRESSION......
...BUT you CAN change it to
5 ( 12 - x)
