1) what number must be added to each term of 5/8 to yield 3/4
\n" ); document.write( "Let x is a number
\n" ); document.write( "\"%285%2Bx%29%2F%288%2Bx%29=3%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4%285%2Bx%29=3%288%2Bx%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"20%2B4x=24%2B3x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x-3x=24-20\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=4\"
\n" ); document.write( ".

\n" ); document.write( "Let x is a number
\n" ); document.write( "\"%289-x%29%2F%2817-x%29=1%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%289-x%29=1%2817-x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(((27-3x=17-x}}}
\n" ); document.write( "\"-3x%2Bx=17-27\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2x=-10\"
