Linear equation calculator

Solve a simple equation for x, including brackets and x on both sides.

Use one equals sign and the variable x. Examples: 2x + 5 = 17 or 2(x + 3) = x + 10. Multiplication such as 2x is supported. Powers of x, x × x, variable denominators, inequalities, and other variables are outside this calculator’s scope. Answers display up to 12 significant digits.
