ALGEBRA / ONE CLEAR STEP AT A TIME
Collect variable terms on either side and uncover a linear equation’s solution.
Start with the example below, or enter your values.

Enter your numbers and we’ll work through the calculation together.
YOUR RESULT
THE IDEA BEHIND THE ANSWER
ax + b = cx + d → x = (d − b) / (a − c)
Use expanded linear terms, decimals, plus/minus signs and one equals sign. Parentheses, fractions, multiplication signs and powers above one are not supported.
GOOD TO KNOW
Enter linear equation. Choose any available mode, then select Calculate. The example numbers are a starting point you can change.
A message explains what to change. Previous results are cleared when you edit an input, so the answer always matches the values you calculated.
No. These tools calculate locally in your browser, without an account. Displayed numeric results are rounded; these tools do not provide arbitrary-precision arithmetic.
