Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by simplifying (2x-x) to just (x)
The equation should now look like this: 12+x=9x-6
Now subtract the x on the left side of the equation on both sides.
The equation should now look like this: 12=8x-6
Now add 6 on both sides
The equation should now look like this: 6=8x
To get x by itself you must divide 8 on both sides
The equation should now look like this 6/8=x
Don't forget to simplify your fractions!
6/8 simplified is 3/4, giving you the answer 3/4
To find the common denominator first find a number that goes into all the denominators;
the LCM of 5, 3, 8 = 120
so your new fractions with the same denominator are;
24/120, 80/120, 75/120

Answer:
20 1/6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides:
2×(5 1/3 ft) + 2×(4 3/4 ft) = 10 2/3 ft + 8 6/4 ft
= 10 2/3 ft + 9 2/4 ft . . . . change 6/4 ft to 1 1/2 ft
= 10 8/12 ft + 9 6/12 ft = 19 14/12 ft . . . . . use common denominator of 1/12 ft
= 20 2/12 ft . . . . . . change 14/12 ft to 1 2/12 ft; next reduce that fraction
= 20 1/6 ft . . . . perimeter of Caleb's bathroom
