Question

solve the following equation​

Answer 1

$\frac{5x}{8} + 3 = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 \\ \frac{5x + 24}{8} = \frac{x + 8}{2} \\ by \: cross \: multiplication \\ 2(5x + 24) = 8(x + 8) \\ 10x + 48 = 8x + 64 \\ 10x - 8x = 64 - 48 \\ 2x = 16 \\ x = 8$

Hope this will be helpful.

Answer 2

5x/8 +3 =1x/2 + 4

5x/8 -1x/2 = 4-3

5x- 4x/8 =1

X/8 =1

X =1×8

X = 8
