Given the equation:
$$\frac{x - 11}{x - 6} = \frac{11}{16}$$
Multiply the equation sides by the denominator -6 + x
we get:
$$x - 11 = \frac{11 x}{16} - \frac{33}{8}$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$x = \frac{11 x}{16} + \frac{55}{8}$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{5 x}{16} = \frac{55}{8}$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 5/16
x = 55/8 / (5/16)
We get the answer: x = 22
