How can you know if this equation is true? 1/2+3/8=4/10=2/5
allsm [11]
Well first you should know that 4/10 is simplified to 2/5 so that part is correct
But to know of the rest is correct , add the Fractions
so the common denominator will be 8 so 1/2 will become 4/8 + 3/8 = 7/8 but 7/8 does not equal 4/10

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

x = 11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

-6 = 0.8x - 15

Add 15 to both sides;

-6 + 15 = 0.8x - 15 + 15

9 = 0.8x

Divide both sides by 0.8;

x = 11.25
