Solve for x: three fourths times x plus five fourths equals four times x

x equals thirteen fifths
x equals five thirteenths
x equals three elevenths
x equals eleven thirds

x equals  five thirteenths

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will follow the steps below;

×  x  +  =  4 × x

+   = 4x

=  4x

Multiply both-side of the equation by 4

× 4=  4x × 4

On the left-hand side of the equation 4 will cancel-out 4, thus the equation becomes;

3x + 5 = 16x

subtract 3x from both-side of the equation

16x - 3x = 5

13x = 5

Divide both-side of the equation by 13

=

(On the left-hand side of the equation 13 at the numerator will cancel-out 13 at the denominator while on the right-hand side of the equation 5 will be divided by 13)

x =

x equals  five thirteenths
