Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{95}{72}$

Should be added

Step-by-step explanation:

ATQ,

$\frac{ - 7}{8} + x = \frac{4}{9}$

Taking the LCM of both terms in LHS

LCM=8

Equalising the fractions accordingly

$\frac{ - 7 \times 1}{8 \times 1} + \frac{x \times 8}{1 \times 8} = \frac{4}{9}$

We get

$\frac{ - 7 + 8x}{8} = \frac{4}{9}$

Cross multiplying both the sides

$9(8x - 7) = 8 \times 4$

$72x - 63 = 32$

Taking -63 to RHS

$72x = 32 + 63$

$72x = 95$

Taking 72 to RHS

$x = \frac{95}{72}$

I think there is no further simplification than that. But pls notify me if there is any.
