6x - 2x = 16
4x = 16 |divide both sides by 4
<h3>x = 4</h3>
The answer to (1+_÷7+4)÷8= 4/7 is -3 I believe
X=1, y=3 because 2x1 is 2 and 3x3 is 9, 2 plus 9 equals 11 and 11 plus 4 equals 15
The best thing to do is either to find a common denominator or convert them to decimals.
I will find a common denominator.
A common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15.
You multiply the first fraction by 5
2*5= 10
This then becomes 10/15
You then multiply the second by 3.
4*3= 12
Therefore, this becomes 12/15
As the second of these fractions is larger, this means that 4/5 is larger.
The alternative method is to put them into decimals, in which case 2/3= 0.66 and 4/5= 0.8
Hope this helps :)
