Answer:
<em>X can equal 22.5 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
I've set up the equation below:
With this equation, as any addition equation goes, we assume it to be like this:
A + B = C
so
C - A = B
that means,
The easiest thing to do is to make 2/3 have the same denominator as 8/9, we do this by...
So...
We now know that 5 over x equals 2 over nine. We can determine x by cross multiplying as follows:
So, x is 22.5, making the equation indeed solvable.
