Evaluate
We have:

Substitute for x and y



That's easy, here let me show you a example:
In a triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180°
x + 3x + 5x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180/9
x = 20
<span>the smallest angle = x = 20</span>°

Answer: x = 11</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:

Those are the two possible solutions
. We need to check each possible solution.
Plug in x = 11 then simplify. If we get the same number on both sides, then x = 11 is confirmed.

We get 11 on both sides, so the solution x = 11 is confirmed.
Repeat for x = 6 as well

We do not get the same thing on both sides, so x = 6 is not a solution. We consider this extraneous.
Answer:
3/12 is less than 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/12 is the same as 1/4, which is 0.25
