Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{x}{3} = \frac{1}{5} (x + 4)$

$\frac{x}{3} = \frac{x}{5} + \frac{4}{5}$

$\frac{x}{3} - \frac{x}{5} = \frac{4}{5}$

$\frac{5x - 3x}{15} = \frac{4}{5}$

$\frac{2x}{15} = \frac{4}{5}$

$x = \frac{4 \times 15}{5 \times 2}$

$x = 2 \times 3 = 6$

Check:

$\frac{6}{3} = \frac{1}{5} (6 + 4)$

$2 = \frac{1}{5} \times 10$

$2 = 2$
