Answer:
22/35
Step-by-step explanation:
first get a common denominator in order to add. The common denominator is 35.
the new fractions should be 7/35 + 15/35
add the top and you get 22/35
(5/3)*(7/3) = 35*(1/3)²
The area is 35 square units.
I don't know if I'm correct, I'm guessing... 30

Answer: B) 2</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Take away the four white small squares on the left side. To balance things out, you have to add 4 black squares to the right side.
Also, take away the two white long rectangles from the right side. To balance this out, you have to add 2 gray long rectangles to the left side.
You should have:
- 5 gray rectangles, and no squares (of any color) on the left side
- 10 black squares, no long rectangles (of any color), on the right side
From here you'll group up the 10 black squares so that you'll have 2 black squares per gray rectangle.
This means the solution is 2.
-------------------------------------
If you're curious about the algebraic way to solve, then you could do this:
3x-4 = -2x+6
3x+2x = 6+4
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
This method doesn't require us to use the visual model.
