Question

if X + 1 by X = 4 what will be the value of x minus one by X​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \frac{x + 1}{x} = 4 \\ \implies x + 1 = 4x \\ \implies 3x = 1 \\ \implies \boxed{\boxed {x = \frac{1}{3}} }$

Now,

$\large{\frac{x - 1}{x} = \frac{ \frac{1}{3} - 1}{ \frac{1}{3} } } \\ = - 2$

hence -2 is the required answer
