Question

4/9x+1/5x=87 what is x

Answer 1

First you need to find a common denominator.

20/45x + 9/45x = 87

Combine like terms.

29/ 45x = 87

Multiply both sides by 45/29

x = 3,915 / 29

x = 135

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x is 135.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $\frac{4}{9}x+\frac{1}{5}x=87$

To find : What is the value of x?

Solution :

Expression $\frac{4}{9}x+\frac{1}{5}x=87$

Take LCM,

$\frac{4x\times 5+x\times 9}{9\times 5}=87$

$\frac{20x+9x}{45}=87$

$\frac{29x}{45}=87$

$x=\frac{87\times 45}{29}$

$x=135$

Therefore, The value of x is 135.
