Answer:

0.33

Explanation:

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 3x + 4 = 5

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 3. Here is the math to illustrate better:

3x + 4 = 5

3x + 4 - 4 = 5 - 4

3x = 1

3x/3 = 1/3

x = 0.33

Answer = 0.33
