Question

how do you solve x+3/6 = 3/8 + x-5/4 (the slashes mean over)

Answer 1

is that (x + 3)/6 or x + (3/6) ? similar for x-5/4?

Answer 2

(x+3) over 6 = 3/8 + (x-5) over 4

Answer 3

let's multiply everything by 24 to make the math easy:
4x + 12 = 9 + 6x - 30
4x + 3 = 6x - 30
3 = 2x - 30
2x = 33
x = 33/2

Answer 4

thank you !
