This is really easy.
x-4=8
what it really is asking you is the value of x
Isolate x
take 4 to the other side. not -4 but positive 4
x=12
Collect like terms
x + 4x - 4 = 9 - 2 x - 6
move the terms
5x - 4 = 3 - 2x
collect like terms calculate
5x + 2x = 3 + 4
7x = 7
answer is x = 1
36...
<span>divide your 16 by 4, so that you have 1/9. You then multiply the resulting number(4) by your denominator, 9. 4 times 9 = 36</span>
Answer: So, 27 as a fraction would be 27/1 i guess? lol
