Question

Rewrite the equation below so that it does not have fractions.

Answer 1

>> Answer

_________

$\:$

$\frac{3}{4} x - 5 = \frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{3}{4} x = \frac{3}{8} + 5$

$\frac{3}{4} x = 5 \frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{3}{4} x = \frac{43}{8}$

$x = \frac{43}{8} \times \frac{4}{3}$

$x = \frac{172}{24}$

$x = \bold{7 \frac{1}{6}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

6x-40=3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 x -5 =3/8

Multiply each side by 8 to get rid of the fractions.

8(3/4x -5 ) =8*3/8

Distribute

6x-40=3
