perhaps it means
(5/3) x = 25
in which case
x/3 = 5
x = 15

To solve for x in the equation 5'3x = 25, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

First, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5'3 (which is equal to 53) to get:

x = 25 / 53

Simplifying the right side:

x = 0.4716981132075472 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Therefore, the solution for x is approximately 0.47.

Apologies for the misunderstanding.

If the equation is interpreted as (5/3) x = 25, then to solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3:

(5/3) x * 3 = 25 * 3

This simplifies to:

5x = 75

To isolate x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:

5x / 5 = 75 / 5

This simplifies to:

x = 15

Therefore, the solution for x is 15.
