Does "this" refer to your subject line? (No equations are included within your posts, and subject lines frequently don't refer to the post contents, is why I ask.)

If so, then what you have posted is the following:

. . . . .\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{5x}\, -\, 2\, =\, \frac{13}{25}\, -\, 0.7x\)

I suspect that you meant "1/(5x - 2) = 13/(25 - 0.7x)", which is the following:

. . . . .\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{5x\, -\, 2}\, =\, \frac{13}{25\, -\, 0.7x}\)

Please reply with correction or confirmation. When you reply, please clarify what you mean when you say that you "have no idea how to do it" since, if that is literally true, we probably cannot help you. Thank you! :wink:
