How to solve 98x = 4? Get the answer and stepwise instruction to solve linear equation in one variable 𝒙.

We have 98x = 4

Divide both sides by 98, which is the coefficent of x

Note: if a = b, then a ÷ c = b ÷ c

98x/98 = 4/98

x = 4/98

To simplify, divide both numerator and denominator by 2, which is the GCF of 4 and 98:

x = 2/49 or, x = 0.04
