Answer:

x = 3 11/45

Explanation:

x = 3.244444444

Multiply by 10

10x = 32.44444444

Subtract the first equation from the second equation

10x = 32.44444444

-x = 3.244444444

---------------------------

9x = 29.2

Divide each side by 9

9x/9 = 29.2 /9

Multiply top and bottom by 10

x =292/90

x =146/45

x = 3 11/45
