Question

If 4x+8/5x+8=5/6,then x =?

Answer 1

Given - 4x+8/5x+8=5/6

Find - Value of x

Solution - The value of x, as per the given mathematical expression, is 2.

Performance cross multiplication to find the value of x in a given mathematical expression.

(4x + 8)*6 = 5*(5x + 8)

Performing multiplication to find the value of x.

24x + 42 = 25x + 40

Performing subtraction by transferring the numbers to find the value of x.

42 - 40 = 25x - 24x

x = 2

Thus, the value of x, as per the given mathematical expression, is 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

By cross multiplication:

6*(4x+8) = 5*(5x+8)

24x+48  = 25x+40

48 - 40   = 25x-24x

          8 = x

          x = 8
