We will call the unknown number <em>x</em>.
<em /><em>x</em> - 2 1/4 - 1/8(3) - 2/3(2) = 3 11/24
<em>x</em> - 2 1/4 - (1/8)(3/1) - (2/3)(2/1) = 3 11/24
<em>x</em> - 2 1/4 - 3/8 - 4/3 = 3 11/24
We need a common denominator.  24 is the first number that 4, 8 and 3 all both divide evenly into.
<em>x</em> - 2 6/24 - 9/24 - 32/24 = 3 11/24
<em>x</em> - 2 15/24 - 32/24 = 3 11/24
<em>x</em> - 2 47/24 = 3 11/24
<em>x</em> - 3 23/24 = 3 11/24
Cancel the 3 23/34 by adding to both sides:
<em>x</em> - 3 23/24 + 3 23/24 = 3 11/24 + 3 23/24
<em>x</em> = 6 34/24 = 7 10/24 = 7 5/12

(4y - 4) + 3y = 52

4y - 4 + 3y = 52

Collect like terms

7y - 4 = 52

Add sides 4

7y - 4 + 4 = 52 + 4

7y = 56

Divide sides by 7

\frac{7y}{7}  =  \frac{56}{7}  \\

y = 8

Thus ;

Angle \:  \:  W = 4y - 4

Angle \:  \:  W =4(8) - 4

Angle   \: \: W = 32 - 4

Angle  \:  \: W =28 °

_________________________________

Angle  \:  \: X = 3y

Angle \:  \:  X = 3(8)

Angle  \:  \: X = 24°

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

With this question, its actually way easier than you think. If you want to find corresponding angles, you have to find a way to make the shapes overlap to be exactly the same. If they cannot be exactly the same, there will not be corresponding angles. For this, if you rotate quadrilateral 90 degrees counter-clockwise, you will see that the shapes look the same. Then you can just match up the angles that have the same degree measure (or just look the same for simplicity) and you have your answer. The answer is actually in the question too. ABCD=JKLM, but each letter is actually in the right place. A=J B=K C=L D=M.

Hope this helped! ^-^
