Hello!

To find the area of a rectangle you do length * width

You can plug in the values you know

(x - 2) * 5 = 30

Divide both sides by 5

x - 2 = 6

Add 2 to both sides

x = 8

The answer is 8

Hope this helps!

What is 1 and 1/4 minus 3/8?

matrenka [14]

Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can change all the fractions to have equivalent denominators.

The Least Common Denominator of 1 1/4 and 3/8 is 8. Now we can change the fractions.

1 1/4 = 1 2/8 = 10/8.

3/8 = 3/8.

Now we can subtract. Subtract the numerators of the first fraction from the numerators of the second fraction, and the denominators oft he first fraction to the denominators of the second fraction.

10/8 - 3/8 = 7/8.

Therefore, 1 1/4 - 3/8 = 7/8; the fourth answer.
