I hate algebra..proportions. Please help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x-2/5 = 1/5\] That's the problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What? I need to find x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. . x=3/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh..thank you!

Don't hate anything.....embrace it.....love it.....learn it. Folks here can help you get there!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks. :)

x-2/5 = 1/5 x-2/5 +2/5 = 1/5 +2/5 (You're just manipulating the equation so you can get x on one side and everything else on the other)
