Answer:
x=29
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-13=74
We want to solve for x, so we need to isolate it.
The first step is to add 13 to each side.
3x-13+13=74+13
3x = 87
Then we divide by 3 on each side
3x/3 = 87/3
x= 29
So firsty up, you need to have equal denominators IN order to do this equation.
1/3 and 5/12..
3x4=12
So the rule when changing denominators, you multiply 4 intop, so it will become 4/12, and 5/12 + 4/12 = 8/12, and,
8/12 + 1/12= 9/12 and 9/12 simplified is 3/4..
So the answer is 3/4.
Hope this helped.
To find the quotient, divide 396 by 12.
396/12= 33
