Question
$$25-6x = 53x+7$$
Answer
$$ x = \dfrac{18}{59} $$
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 25-6x &= 53x+7&& \text{move the $ \color{blue}{ 53x } $ to the left side and $ \color{blue}{ 25 }$ to the right} \\[1 em]-6x-53x &= 7-25&& \text{simplify left and right hand side} \\[1 em]-59x &= -18&& \text{ divide both sides by $ -59 $ } \\[1 em]x &= \frac{-18}{-59}&& \\[1 em]x &= \frac{18}{59}&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
