Hi everyone so I need help, I’m not sure what to do with this so can someone please help me??? Like what am i supposed to do…

9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, you want x to be alone on one side of the equal sign. To get a term from one side to another, you perform the reverse operation of it on both sides. In this equation, X - 1/2 = 2/5, we need to move -1/2 to the other side to get x alone. So do the reverse operation (adding 1/2).

X - 1/2 + 1/2 = 2/5 + 1/2

-1/2 + 1/2 is 0, so they cancel each other out and x is left alone on one side. the other side is 2/5 + 1/2. Find a common denominator (10 works) and then do 4/10 + 5/10. You get 9/10 as X

So basically:

X - 1/2 = 2/5

Add 1/2 to both sides

X = 2/5 + 1/2

Find a common denominator

X = 4/10 + 5/10

Simplify

X = 9/10

if im undersanding the question correctly, its organized from 10
