Question

Please help - step by step so I can comprend; 5/8=11/4x+2 - Thanks

Answer 1

\[\frac{5}{8} = \frac{11}{4x+2}\]

Cross multiply to get:

5(4x+2) = 8*11

Distribute to get

5*4x + 2*5 = 8*11

Multiply that to get:

20x + 10 = 88

Subtract 10 from both sides to get

20x = 78

Divide both sides by 20 to get

x = 78/20
