1/4 + 1/2 ..you cant directly add them as they are unlike fractions ..so to add then first convert them into like fractions ...for that find the LCM of the denominators ..2 and 4 ..
LCM of 2 and 4 is .. 4 
so 1/4 + 1/2 will become 1/4 + 2/4 ...(because we multiplied 1/2 with 2 to make denominator as 4)

=> the answer is 3/4 ..

this is how i do ..

Hope it helps !!!

taurus [48]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

3+x=ax    (Given)

x=ax-3    (Subtracted 3 on both sides)

x-ax=-3    (Subtracted ax on both sides)

x(1-a)=-3    (Factor out x from x - ax)

x=-\frac{3}{1-a}    (Divided 1 - a on both sides)
