To solve the equation 5/8(x-1/2) = 10, the first step is to get rid of the coefficient (5/8) in front of the parenthesis. In order to reverse the multiplication, you should divide both sides of the equation by 5/8.

Certainly! Let's solve the equation step by step:

1. We start with the equation 5/8(x-1/2) = 10.

2. To reverse the multiplication, we divide both sides of the equation by 5/8:

(5/8(x-1/2)) / (5/8) = 10 / (5/8).

3. Simplifying, the 5/8 terms cancel out on the left side, and we are left with:

x - 1/2 = 10*(8/5).

4. Further simplifying, 10*(8/5) equals 16:

x - 1/2 = 16.

5. To isolate x, we can add 1/2 to both sides of the equation:

(x - 1/2) + 1/2 = 16 + 1/2.

6. Simplifying, the 1/2 terms cancel out on the left side, and we have:

x = 16 + 1/2.

7. Adding 16 and 1/2, we get:

x = 16 + 1/2 = 16 1/2.

Therefore, the solution to the equation 5/8(x-1/2) = 10 is x = 16 1/2.
