Question

1/3 + a = 5/4 a = ( ) Help plz!

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this will help

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    1/3+a-(5/4*a)=0

                 5

Simplify   —

                 4

    1                 5

 ( — +  a ) -  ( — • a )  = 0

   3                 4

                 1

Simplify   —

                 3

Solve  :    -3a+4 = 0

Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :

                     -3a = -4

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  3a = 4

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

                    a = 4/3 = 1.333
