Solve the solution to x help?

Question

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

The solution is = ?

Answer 1

if this is your homework dont ask us

Answer 2

the answer is 1/2

Answer 3

I get:

5/4x+1/8x = 3/8+x <===find common denominator

10/8x+1/8x = 3/8 +8/8x <====combine x's

(10+1-8)/8x = 3/8

3/8x = 3/8

x = 1

Answer 4

well first these are fractions so you want to make all of them with like denomenators

so get 5/4x to 10/8x by multiplying the top and bottom by 2

then you have

10/8x + 1/8x=3/8+x

then you combine the left side because they are like.

so now its

11/8x=3/8 + x

then you want all the x's on one side so you can solve it

so subtract the x on the right side from both sides

so now you have

3/8x=3/8

then you divide both sides by 3/8 and you get

x=1

so your answer is x=1

good luck!

Answer 5

Right, I think it is this

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

10/8x + 1/8x = 11/8x

1 3/8x = 3/8 + x

Therefore I conclude that X is 1

Answer 6

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

11/8x=3/8+x

3/8x=3/8

x=1
