Number one would be 13 because you have to add the x to both sides which will leave you with 2x=26 then you have to divide by 2 and you will get x=13. Number two is 7 7/8 because you have to add the 1/3x to the other 1/3x to get 2/3x= 5 1/4 so then you divide both sides by 2/3 and to divide a fraction you do keep change flip so it would be 21/4 times 3/2 which would be 63/8 which simplifys to 7 7/8.
Answer:
no
because it doesn't work with the first equation

Answer: $628 </h3>
==========================================================
Work Shown:
x = Ali's share
4x = Pip's share, because it is four times bigger due to the ratio 4:1
x+4x = 5x = total amount of money = 785
5x = 785
x = 785/5
x = 157 dollars is Ali's share
4x = 4*157 = 628 dollars is Pip's share
Note that 157+628 = 785 to help confirm the answer.
Its 90 because 90 divided by 10 simplifies down to 9, and 9+8=17
