the blue "equation" button below :)

Answer 4

now, first let's convert that into an improper fraction

can you do that? :)

Answer 5

x 3 with 4 and add 3

Answer 6

15/ 4

Answer 7

good :)
so now we have\[\frac{ x }{ 8 }= \frac{ 15 }{ 4 }\]multiply both sides by 8, what would you get?

Answer 8

So 8 times 8?

Answer 9

oh
(1/8) times 8 = 1

Answer 10

what?

Answer 11

\[\frac{ x }{ 8 }*\frac{ 8 }{ 1 }=x\]

Answer 12

it's just something that is true
and if we multiply one side by 8
then we have to multiply the other side too
\[x = \frac{ 15 }{ 4 }*\frac{ 8 }{ 1 }=~?\]do you know how to multiply fractions? :)

Answer 13

15 x 8 = 120
4 x 1 = 4

Answer 14

Oh so ur saying that 15 is the answer?

Answer 15
