Question

Solve for x. 4(x+113)=923 Enter your answer as a mixed number in simplest form in the box.

Answer 1

1 1/12

Explanation:

4 ( x + 1 1/3) = 9 2/3

distribute the 4

4x + 5 1/3 = 9 2/3

add the opposite value of 5 1/3 (-5 1/3) to both 5 1/3 and 9 2/3

5 1/3 + - 5 1/3 = 0 and 9 2/3 + - 5 1/3 = 4 1/3

divide

4 1/3 ÷ 4 = 1 1/12

Answer 2

`4(x + 113) = 923 \\ 4x + 452 = 923 \\ 4x = 471 \\ x = (471)/(4) \\ x = 117 (3)/(4)`
