Answer 2

Answer -

• The value of x = 9.

To find -

• The value of x.

Step-by-step explanation -

$\implies \bf \dfrac{x}{12} + \dfrac{5}{4} = 2$

$\implies \bf \dfrac{x}{12} = 2 - \dfrac{5}{4}$

$\implies \bf \dfrac{x}{12} = \dfrac{(2 \times 4) - (5 \times 1)}{4}$

$\implies \bf \dfrac{x}{12} = \dfrac{8 - 5}{4}$

$\implies \bf \dfrac{x}{12} = \dfrac{3}{4}$

$\implies \bf 4 \times x = 12 \times 3$

$\implies \bf 4x = 36$

$\implies \bf x = \cancel{\dfrac{36}{4} }$

$\implies \bf x = 9$

• To check our answer, let's substitute the value of "x" in the equation and see whether LHS = RHS.

LHS :

$\leadsto \tt\dfrac{x}{12} + \dfrac{5}{4}$

$\leadsto \tt\dfrac{9}{12} + \dfrac{5}{4}$

$\leadsto\tt\dfrac{(9 \times 1) + (5 \times 3)}{12}$

$\leadsto \tt \dfrac{9 + 15}{12}$

$\leadsto\tt \cancel{\dfrac{24}{12}}$

$\leadsto \tt\dfrac{2}{1}$

$\leadsto \tt2$

RHS :

$\leadsto \tt2$

LHS = RHS.

Hence verified!!
