We we are asked to solve this kind of problem we are asked to find the value of the value (x in this case). So the first thing we want to do isolate x by subtracting 5/12 from both sides.
x+5/12-5/12=5/8-5/12
Simplify
x=5/8-5/12
Reduce
x=3/3(5/8)-2/2(5/12)
x=15/24-10/24
x=5/24
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 of 30 students play sport
30×1/3
= 10
2/5 of this number plays soccer
10×2/5
= 20/5
= 4
Answer: x = 1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by Identifying what you need to keep, in this case that would be X. In order to solve for x, you would need to get rid of any co-efficients. (example: +1.1) To get rid of them, you have to do the opposite action of what it's doing to the equation. (subtraction)
1.1- (-2.1) = 3.2 (if you subtract a negative, it turns positive/ you add) leaving you with x/2 = 3.2.
Now that we have our coefficient out the way, we have to get rid of the division so we can <u>only</u> solve for x. We do that by dividing the remainder of the equation by 2
3.2/2 = 1.6
Leaving us with the answer, x = 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
37 and 1/2 divided by 3/16 =
75/2 divided by 3/16 =
75/2 * 16/3 =
25*8 = 200 <--- 75 cancels 3; 16 cancels 2
