Question

Create and write a real-world situation that could be represented by the equation below 1/2x+2 1/8=1/4x+3 1/8.

Answer 1

`(1)/(2)x+2(1)/(8)=(1)/(4)x+3(1)/(8)`

You can say:

John bikes 2 1/8 miles per week and adds 1/2 mile every month.

Carlos bikes 3 1/8 miles per week and adds 1/4 of a mile every month.

Find the number of months passed after both bike the same miles.

X = number of months-
