The value of x = 1
5x + 15 = 20
- 15 -15
5x = 5 ( Divide by 5)
4 1/3
Okay, I know fractions are scary, but we can do this alright?
First, you see the whole number on the side? Get that first.
10- 5 = 5
now we have 5 left and a scary fraction. Don't panic, let's do this. We know 1 is 3/3. 1 can be anything as long as the number on top and the number at the bottom are the same then it would be one.
So 3/3 is one then we can subtract:
3/3 -2/3 .
We subtract the top number and leave the one at the bottom the same.
3-2 = 1
Then we have 1/3.
As you took one away from the 5, it becomes a 4 and you put back the left over, 1/3.
Then you answer will be :
4 1/3

Answer:
Problem 1. <em>(19/2)b + 15</em>
Problem 2. <em>3/16</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Question number 1
5/8 (16b+24) -1/2b =
= (5/8) * (16/1) * b + (5/8) * 24 - (1/2)b
= 10b + 15 - (1/2)b
= (20/2)b - (1/2)b + 15
= (19/2)b + 15
Question number 2
3/4 (16/64 + 12a) -9a =
= (3/4) * (16/64) + (3/4) * 12a - 9a
= (3 * 16)(4 * 64) + (3/4) * (12/1) * a - 9a
= (3 * 1)(4 * 4) + (3 * 12)/(4 * 1) * a - 9a
= 3/16 + (3 * 3)/(1 * 1) * a - 9a
= 3/16 + 9a - 9a
= 3/16
