-26x - 5 = x - 56

That should be the equation that is formed.

If you are attempting to find said number (x), then follow these steps:

First, add five to both sides:

-26x = x - 51

Then subtract x from both sides to get the variable on one side of the equation:

-27 x = -51

Now, divide both sides by -27, which will get you the final answer of:

x = -1.9 (rounded up)

Hope this helps!
