Question
$$35-\frac{-110}{5}\cdot2 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 35-\frac{-110}{5}\cdot2 &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 5 }. \\[1 em]5\cdot35-5 \cdot \frac{-110}{5}\cdot2 &= 5\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]175-(-220) &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]175+220 &= 0&& \\[1 em]395 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 395 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
