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
 {{{(8/25)x = 18/25 + 6/5}}}


CHECKING our Answer***
 8/25x = 18/25 + 6/5 
  8/25x = 18/25 + 30/25 
  8/25x = 48/25 
      {{{x = (48/25)*(25/8) = 6}}}
