Question
$$\frac{25}{5}+3\cdot1 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{25}{5}+3\cdot1 &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 5 }. \\[1 em]5\cdot\frac{25}{5}+5\cdot3\cdot1 &= 5\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]25+15 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]40 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 40 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
