Solve x can i have the work for me to understand pls
\[\frac{ 4 }{ 5 } \left( x+15 \right)=20\]
beware of answers with no explanation they are frequently wrong, (like that one ) and in any case you don't learn anything
^^
a) multiply both sides by \(\frac{5}{4}\) then b) subtract \(15\) from both sides
???????? @satellite73
Well first you have to get the decimal of \[\frac{ 4 }{ 5 }=0.8\]
First you need to multiply both sides by \[\frac{ 5 }{ 4 }\]
(4 divided by 5)
Then, multiply by 20, and you get?
Because that's the reciprocal of \[\frac{ 4 }{ 5}\] You'll get \[(x + 15) = 25\]
0.8 x 20= ?
no im kinda confused
Ok i'll stop talking lmao
or chatting
Then subtract both sides by 15 and you get the answer, \[x = 10\]
x = 10 10 + 15 = 25 4/5 of 25 = 20 ANSWER: x = 10 4/5 = 80%
You have to figure out what has to be divided by 80% to = 20 25 / 80% = 20 x is 10 and 10 + 15 = 25
