Answer:

x=3

Explanation:

5x+1/4=61/4

5x=61/4-1/4(61/4-1/4, they have the same denominator so can subtract them with each other)

5x=60/4 (60/4=15)

5x=15

x=15/5

x=3

Tip :to check your answer simply plug in the value and then solve the equation. If both the sides are equal to each other, the answer is most likely correct.
