Are you solving for X?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok here i wil show u how:
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i know all the steps but when i get the final answer it always tells me im wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
will*
Ok so first you would - 3/30 to the other side so then your equation would be
x = -3/30 + 8/10
so you have to change the denominator of 8/10
so multiply times 3
=
x = -3/30 + 24/30 = 21/30
x = 21/30 is that what you got? (:

\[8/10 = 24/30\]\[\implies x +3/30 = 24/30\]\[\implies x = (24-3)/30 = 21/30 = 7/10\]

You might need to reduce the fraction to get credit
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ahh i forgot to simplify (:
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya i got it thanks guys

it would be easier if you simplified 3/30 first
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure, that's also an option and requires fewer steps.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ya, but i dont think they teach you to do that at that age
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well if you can simplify 21/30 to 7/10 you can simplify 3/30 to 1/10
