Question

2 over 5 equal x plus 1 over 5

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }=\frac{ x+1 }{ 5 }\]
Separate the x+1/5 into two fractions.

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }=\frac{ x }{ 5 }+\frac{ 1 }{ 5 }\]
Now switch the 2/5 to the other side.
\[\frac{ x }{ 5 }+\frac{ 1 }{ 5 }=\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }\]
Now do the opposite. Subtract 2 - 1 and that's your answer.
