Find the Lowest Common Denominator (LCD) of the fractions.

Rename the fractions to have the LCD.

Subtract the numerators of the fractions.

The difference will be the numerator and the LCD will be the denominator of the answer.

Okay, so from the given figure we can see that, < FAE & < FAB forms a linear pair. In a linear pair, the 2 angles will together sum up to 180°. So,

< FAE = 4x°
< FAB = 2x°

__________________

From the explanation, we can understand that,

Sum of the linear pair = 180°

< FAE + < FAB = 180°

4x° + 2x° = 180°

6x° = 180°

x° = 180 ÷ 6

x = 30°.

__________________

The value of x will be 30° (3rd option).
