One way in which to approach this problem would be to treat it as an equation of ratios and to cross multiply:
<span>[(4x + 15) / 5x)] = 1/2 could be written as:
4x + 15 1
----------- = ---
5x 2
Then 8x + 30 = 5x
3x = -30, and so x = -10 (answer). Be certain to check this answer through substitution!

Answer:
1 5/16 gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
Gallon of ice brought by Karen = 3/8
Gallon of ice brought by Robin = 15/16
Total ice team brought by them is sum of Gallon of ice brought by Karen + Gallon of ice brought by Robin
Total ice team brought by Karen and Robin = 3/8 + 15/16
=> 3*2/8*2 + 15/16
we are multiplying with 2 both numerator and denominator in 3/8 so sas the denominator becomes 16 as in other fraction denominator is 16
=> 6/16 + 15/16
=> (6+15)/16 = 21/16
since 21/16 is improper fraction, converting it in mixed fraction we have
21/16 = 1 5/16 gallon
Thus , Karen and Robin have 1 5/16 gallon ice tea together.
