Answer:
I'm assuming that you meant to type: The question is x/5=1/2+1/8 ; X= ?
If so, we're solving for x.
x/5 = 1/2 + 1/8
2 is a factor of 8, so let's start with common denominators.
x/5 = 1/2 *(4/4) + 1/8
x/5 = 4/8 + 1/8
x/5 = 5/8 As long as we just need to know the value of x, let's use inverse operations.
x/5 *5 = 5/8 *5
x = 25/8 or 3.125
Answer:
5/51 or 0.098
Step-by-step explanation:
3 consecutive integers : x, x + 1, x + 2
x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 108...ur equation
3x + 3 = 108...ur equation that has been simplified some
