Let x be the number

5x = x + 5

subtract x from both sides

5x - x = 5

4x = 5

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 5/4

x = 5/4

=======

Check:

5 * (5/4) = (5/4) + 5

25/4 = 1.25 + 5

6.25 = 6.25





Hope it helps . Note that I am a sixth grade student and I don’t know anything . I got help from somebody

Answer:

As a decimal your answer: is 5.4 rounded to the nearest tenth. As a mixed number fraction your answer is: 5 11/25. As a improper fraction your answer is: 136/25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically what I did was just divide 6.8 by 4/5. Or you could change 4/5 in a decimal and divide like that, OR change 6.8 into a fraction which is what if did- I’ll show you below. But, it’s better to have all solutions to the problem.

1) change 6.8 into fraction: 34/5

2) rewrite: 34/5 divide by 4/5

3) multiply: 136/25

4) alternative forms:

A. Mixed number- 5 11/25

B. Decimal: 5.44 or 5.4 rounded to nearest tenth.

I hope this helped, good luck! :)

Last year, 120 students were sick at school. This year, 20% fewer students are sick. How many students are sick this year?
VMariaS [17]
First find how many students are sick the second year:
0.20 × 120 = 24
Then all you need to do is subtract:
120 - 24 = 96
So the number of students that got sick this year is:
96 students
