Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
33769/181
Discussion:
Each term contains "x" so factoring it out gives
x( 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17) = 71 (*)
Use common factor (17*14*4 = 952) as the denominator to combine terms:
1/4 = (17*14)/ 952 = 238/952
1/14 = (17*4)/952 = 68/952
1/17 = (14*4)/952 = 56/952
so 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17 = (238 + 68 + 56)/ 952 = 362/952 = 181/476
Substituting in (*) gives
x ( 181/476) = 71 => multiply both sides by 476/181
x = (71 * 476)/181 => 71* 476 =33769
x = 33769/181
Thank you,

Answer:
12 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 2 3/4 x 4 1/2
best way is to change mixed numbers to fractions and multiply and then go back to a mixed number.
11/4 x 9/2 = 99/8 = 12 3/8
Let x be the length of each row.
Denver can plant 3 rows of a certain length with 2 seedlings leftover.
Total number of seeds he has = 3x+2 Denver can plant 4 rows of the same length with 3 seedling spots left empty.
Total number of seeds he has = 4x-3 Using (i) and (ii), we get= 3x+2=4x-3
Isolate variable terms: 2+3=4x-3
Answer= 5=X
