Question

What does X equal? Solve

Answer 1

x = 59/2

Explanation:

First, you want to add 2 to both sides. To do this, convert 2 to a fraction with the denominator 24.

2 = 48/24

Then add to 11/24 by adding the numerators together.

48/24 + 11/24 = 59/24

Now, you have x/12 = 59/24. To get x on its own, you want to multiply both sides by 12. To do this, just think of 12 as a fraction (12/1) and multiply the numerators and denominators.

59/24 * 12/1

59 * 12 = 708

24 * 1 = 24

x = 708/24

You can simplify this into 59/2 by dividing the whole thing by 12.

x = 59/2
