.75 = (X-1,500,000)/X
I did this :
.75x = x - 1,500,000
now i'm stuck.....

somehow i think its 6 millions but im not sure the algebra, i just get that 1,500,000 is 1/4 of x.

0.75x = x - 1,500,000
subtact 0.75x from each side....
0 = 0.25x - 1,500,000
0.25x = 1,500,000
(Multiply both side by 4)
x = 6,000,000

.75 = (x-1,500,000)/x
.75 = 1 - (1,500,000/x)
-.25 = - 1,500,000/x
-.25x = -1,500,000
x = (-1,500,000) / (-.25)
X = 6,000,000.

So far so good. Subtract x and get -.25 x = 1500000
divide by -.25, x= -6000000.

0.75.x = x - (1.5 x 10^(6))
1.5 x 10^(6) = 0.25 x
x = 1.5 x 10^(6) / 0.25
x = 6 x 10^(6) = 6,000,000
