(5x) / (2/11) = 3 / (1/5)
cross multiply
(5x)(1/5) = (2/11)(3)
x = 6/11
2/x + 3 is the answer written in simplest form. You can solve this question by adding the fractions 1/x + 1/x together and then putting the +3 at the end of it all because it does not fit in due to the x not being attached on to the 3.
answer in simplest form: 2/x+3
Have a nice day :D
Answer:
Mike can go 124 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Car rent = $29.20
However, a customer has to pay $0.20 for every mile.
Mike has $54 to spend on the car for a day.
If he pays the car rent which is $29.20, then he has
$54 - $29.20 = $24.80 remaining
1 mile = $0.20
x miles = $24.80
By cross multiplication
0.20x = 1 * 24.80
x = 24.80/0.20
x = 124 miles
