Question

4/9=x+1/18 solve for x

Answer 1

• x=7

Explanation:

`\sf{(4)/(9)=(x+1)/(18)}\\\\\\ \sf{9(x+1)=4(18)}\\\\\\ \sf{x+1=(72)/(9)}\\\\\\ \sf{x+1=8}\\\\\\ \sf{x=8-1}\\\\\\ \sf{x=7}`

Answer 2

x = 7

Explanation:

Solving the equation

`\sf (x+1)/(18)=(4)/(9)\\\\\text{\bf Multiply the entire equation by 18}\\\\18*((x+1))/(18)=18*(4)/(9)\\\`

x + 1 = 2*4

x + 1 = 8

Subtract 1 from both sides,

x = 8 - 1

x = 7
