Hi
write an equation with fractions using the variable x such that
the answer is x=6
Let's start by multiplying each side by a fraction...
8/25x = 6*8/25 = 6( 3/25 + 5/25) = 6( 3/25 + 1/5)= 18/25 + 6/5
%288%2F25%29x+=+18%2F25+%2B+6%2F5

CHECKING our Answer***
8/25x = 18/25 + 6/5
8/25x = 18/25 + 30/25
8/25x = 48/25
x+=+%2848%2F25%29%2A%2825%2F8%29+=+6
