Question

X + 4 = x + 6
3 4
x = ?

Answer 1

X is equal to 2

Explanation:

Cross-multiplying we have:

4(x + 4) = 3(x + 6)

4x + 16 = 3x + 18

Collect like terms

4x - 3x = 18 - 16

x = 2.

Answer 2

x = 2

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ Find the required value of x.

The equation is,

→ (x + 4)/3 = (x + 6)/4

Then the value of x will be,

→ (x + 4)/3 = (x + 6)/4

→ 4(x + 4) = 3(x + 6)

→ 4(x) + 4(4) = 3(x) + 3(6)

→ 4x + 16 = 3x + 18

→ 4x - 3x = 18 - 16

→ [ x = 2 ]

Hence, the value of x is 2.
