how to solve 5(3-5x)=8-(6-25x)

5(3 - 5x) = 8 - (6 - 25x)
15 - 25x = 8 - 6 + 25x
15 - 25x + 15 = 2 + 25x - 15
-25x = -13 + 25x
-25x - 25x = -13 + 25x - 25x
-50x = -13
-50x / -50 = 17 / -50
x = 13/50

Check it.

5(3 - 5x) = 8 - (6 - 25x)
5(3 - 5(13/50)) = 8 - (6 - 25(13/50))
5(3 - 1.3) = 8 - (6 - 6.5)
5(1.7) = 8 - (-0.5)
8.5 = 8.5
