Work out 5x-4=3x+8?

Answer: 1 4/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first add the numbers with the x's

5x+3x = 8x

Now you have

8x-4=8

Next you add 4 both sides

8x-4=8

+4 + 4

=12

And - 4 + 4 cancels each other out so it's gone and then bring your 12 down to have

8x=12

Now divide 8x by 8 and 12 divided 8

8x / 8 = x

12 / 8 = 1 4/8

Your answer is x equals 1 whole and four eights

x = 1 4/8

The x in 5x-4=3x+8 is equal to 6
