Question

4/9x+1/5x=87 what is x

Answer 1

First you need to find a common denominator.

20/45x + 9/45x = 87

Combine like terms.

29/ 45x = 87

Multiply both sides by 45/29

x = 3,915 / 29

x = 135

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The value of x is 135.

Explanation:

Given : Expression
`(4)/(9)x+(1)/(5)x=87`

To find : What is the value of x?

Solution :

Expression
`(4)/(9)x+(1)/(5)x=87`

Take LCM,

`(4x* 5+x* 9)/(9* 5)=87`

`(20x+9x)/(45)=87`

`(29x)/(45)=87`

`x=(87* 45)/(29)`

`x=135`

Therefore, The value of x is 135.
