    (x+2) / 3 = 8/5

    Multiply each side by 3:

    (x+2) = 24/5

    Remove the parentheses on the left side:

    x + 2 = 24/5

    Subtract 2 from each side: (Express '2' as '10/5')

    x = 24/5 - 10/5 = 14/5 = 2.8

    x=14/5

    It is this because you would have to first multiply each side by 3, making the equation x+2=24/5, or 4 and 4/5.

    Then you would have to subtract two from each side, making x=2 and 4/5, or 14/5
