Answer 2

Answer: 1/2

Step by step explanation:

Given equation:

$\tt{\frac{x + 1}{2x + 3} = \frac{3}{8} }$

Cross multiplying, we get :

$\implies \tt{8(x + 1) = 3(2x + 3)}$

Opening the brackets on both sides,

$\implies \tt{8x + 8 = 6x + 9}$

Simplifying eq. further,

$\implies \tt{8x - 6x = 9 - 8}$

$\implies \tt{2x = 1}$

Dividing both the sides by 2x, we get:

$\implies \tt{x = \frac{1}{2}}$

Hence, The value of "x" is 1/2.
