Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3 = 7x - 1

Subtract 3 to both sides

5x = 7x - 4

Subtract 7x to both sides

-2x = -4

Divide by -2 to both sides.

x = 2

What is 2.125 as a fraction?
Nuetrik [128]

2.125 = 17/8 = 21/8 as a fraction


Step by Step Solution

To convert the decimal 2.125 to a fraction follow these steps:


Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:


2.125 = 2.125/1


Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:


As we have 3 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000. So,


2.125/1 = (2.125 x 1000)/(1 x 1000) = 2125/1000.


Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(2125,1000) = 125. So,


(2125÷125)/(1000÷125) = 17/8 when reduced to the simplest form.


As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 2125/1000 is also equal to 2 1/8 when expressed as a mixed number.


Hope that helps feel free to ask me questions
